Stimulate your appetite and brighten up your cooking space.
By Lucia Tonelli, ELLE Decor
When the boldness of red meets the joy of yellow, we are left with a color that’s highly versatile and always chic: orange. The color represents success, health and happiness, and is known to promote general wellness and emotional energy. Whether you’re looking to go all-natural with terracotta or go bold with citrus, orange is your kitchen’s next best friend.
