To keep a kitchen looking "rich and sumptuous" rather than dark when dark red paint is already being used, I would recommend utilizing rich wood tones. Cherry, for example, can pair super well with dark red. It has a rich warm shade to it, which can help elevate the space to make it feel sumptuous, but it doesn't have to be a dark shade. It complements dark red well while also offering a bit of a contrast.
While playing with Japandi looks for my business Japantastic, I learned dark red kitchens need texture. Light wood accents, like shelves or a thin countertop edge, warm things up without feeling heavy. Brass or brushed gold handles add a nice touch too. A simple trick is painting the ceiling a warm white or light cream. It makes the whole kitchen feel more spacious and inviting. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to my personal email
Dark cabinets and tiles can feel cozy, but they can also make a room heavy. I always balance them with lighter, textured materials. Pairing deep red cabinets with warm herringbone floors, for instance, keeps a kitchen inviting instead of closed in. Even a simple trick like using lighter grout with dark tiles can stop a space from feeling too oppressive. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to my personal email
