Research suggests that these deeper tones illicit emotional responses better and visually stimulate us, making them an ideal choice for a readily used space like your kitchen.

The key to success with darker cabinets is creating visual balance in the scheme, this could be opting for white walls to reflect more light around the room or adding jewel tones to your backsplash for a colorful accent.
