It utilises red acrylic and white modern kitchen cabinets with a long mirror on the door leading out of the kitchen into the laundry, to enlarge and to embolden an otherwise very conventional white kitchen.
Note the down lights under the wall units that are placed high up and rise to the height of the ceiling.
This gives the kitchen a beautiful ambience, that reflects the light onto the glossy red surfaces beneath and behind.
You can see how there are 4 cupboards behind the cooktop - these add extra storage space. The same red material (acrylic) comes down onto the countertop thereby enclosing three sides of the inside area which gives a beautiful visual effect.
The white of the flooring (ceramic tile) adds to the clean, fresh look that the white gives. The units are routed and have polished chrome knobs on them.
This is a very functional and efficient kitchen and lots of thought has been given to the design elements such as the mirror on the door - which enlarges the space with a trompe d'oeil or trick of the eye.
By using a creative and imaginative sense of where to put the bold color that was chosen, this kitchen space is transformed from 'nice but average' to 'dramatic and unique' while still being very aesthetically pleasing.
Imagine it with blue or green - or whichever your favorite color happens to be.
