Modern kitchen with red and blue cabinetry, a white countertop island with a built-in stovetop, and an undermount sink. Shelves hold decor, and a large wooden door is in the background. Light filters in softly, highlighting the sleek design.

Red

Want to make an impact? Whether as the main colour or an accent, red is warm, striking and bold. But it's also surprisingly versatile, with tones at the red end of the spectrum ranging from soft pastel pinks to rich purples. Here are some ideas to inspire you…

Red for warmth in the kitchen

Red is the hottest colour on the spectrum, so introducing some red cabinets into a white or neutral scheme can be just the thing for a dose of happy, cosy warmth.

Red for a bold, contemporary look

Red is a brilliant statement colour, so if bold, contemporary interior design is your thing, then a red kitchen sets the tone for the whole home.

Red as a contrast colour

Paired with a sharp white in a monochrome scheme, red will give the kitchen a vibrant, modern look. It also works beautifully when paired with a yellow, creating a fresh, warm, happy vibe.

Reds, pinks and purples

Using colours drawn from the red end of the spectrum, the Harpley kitchen combines multiple shades from pink to purple to stunning effect. It's a perfect example of how harmonious accent colours can work together to make a kitchen space sing.

Our red paint colours are inspired by North Norfolk, including the red sails of boats at the Morston Regatta and rich, earthy red soil of the Old Hun'ston cliffs

Questions & Answers

1

Do you fit?

We are just as happy to fit, or simply supply the kitchen for your contractors to take it from there. Many of our clients are undergoing wider renovation projects, so using the contractor or a local carpenter or fitter can often be the most cost-effective option.

We are now also offering a fitting service in Greater London and the surrounding area, so please enquire with your designer as part of your design consultation and we'd be happy to help!

2

Do you come on site to measure?

A final site measure is all part of the fitting service, but if you would like us to come and do a final measure if your contractors are fitting, that's no problem. Depending on the complexity of the space and the travel distance from either London or Norfolk, the site measure starts from £250. All we ask is that your room is ready for us!

3

Where can I see one of your kitchens?

We'd love for you to visit us at either our London showrooms at Bloomsbury or Chelsea or our head office in Norfolk .

Do you supply appliances?

Absolutely. We work directly with lots of fantastic partners, such as Neff, Miele, Bora, Gaggenau, Siemens & Quooker, among many others. Find out more on our appliances page
