Lighter shades of yellow can create a soft glow and help brighten a space. Pair these lighter shades with gray accents for a sophisticated look or with light blues for a French country feel. Orange is another warm shade that can instantly transform your kitchen. There are many orange options, from terracotta tones to rich pumpkin.

If you love bright colors, go for a kitchen in bold shades – yellow, orange, red, blue, green and others, you may stick to one color or make the space crazy rocking two bold shades for upper and lower cabinets or rocking all bright shades for every cabinet or door.
