The Eye-Catching Look of Red Decor

Posted on by

No color is quite as eye-catching and dynamic as the color red. The psychology behind it is very powerful and passionate, making it a great choice in design when you are looking to make a splash. Even a little bit of red decor can go a long way.

Red decor is used most often in the kitchen or dining room because the color is said to increase your appetite. That’s why you will often see the walls in a dining room painted in red or red accents in a kitchen. But red decor can stun in any space, including living rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms, and even outdoor spaces. It’s gender neutral and can be chic and sophisticated or casual and family-friendly.

Here are 10 spaces that used red decor beautifully and creatively, all in their own unique but successful ways.
