Adding a wall of colour in tall kitchen units does the same trick as painting a wall in any other room – it brings character and warmth. Spend evenings in your kitchen diner? Choose a warm shade. Segmento, Poggenpohl
We love the daring of this kitchen – one with a rainbow of shades for the doors. Kitchens cost around £17,000 from Harvey Jones, but you could try this yourself with paint!

Picking a shade such as this green is a brave move. If you’re planning on living in your home for a long time, go for it. If it’s a property development, steer clear. Green Milieu, Intoto
A yellow kitchen, especially a pale one like this, is ideal if you want to create a sunny breakfast room, while at night, the yellow will deepen to a welcoming shade. Sun Yellow kitchen, Neil Lerner
If you’re going to mix and match unit colours, our advice would be to do so in blocks, rather than alternating, say, red with black. This kitchen frames the red units centrally to create a balanced look. City kitchen, John Lewis
If you’re not brave enough to choose painted units, keep colours to walls or window dressings. Far cheaper and easier to change with your mood and fashions. Massello kitchen, Habitat
This kitchen has been cleverly created, with the yellow full length units matched to the wall on the right hand side. This helps to bring the room together and adds extra colour, more cheaply. Kitchen by Miele
At a quick glance, this kitchen is very colourful, but repaint the walls white, and you have the plainest of rooms. If you are going to pick a strong wall colour, choose units that will show it off, such as these. Nepal, Neil Lerner
These units are like a slash of lipstick on a well powdered face – they shout ‘look at me!’ and are all the more noticeable because of the plain accessories around them. Lucia kitchen, John Lewis
We love this kitchen – the purple walls are ideal for a room that’s used a lot in the evenings, while the pale, warm tones of the wood make a great contrast. Canella kitchen, Habitat
If you’re going to choose a bright colour such as orange for your units, do it sparingly, matching it with other units in monotone shades, and choosing flooring and wall coverings in matching tones. Malmo Orange kitchen, Intoto
If you’re going to use dark shades on your walls, it’s important to light the room properly so that the colour glows at night – downlighters, directional spots and intimate pendants – go to town. Kitchen by Alno
Orange units work particularly well combined with wooden units in a similarly deep tone. Here, the black of the background serves to highlight and show off the units. Lucia kitchen by John Lewis
Colour needn’t mean a strong, punchy shade – very pale units can add the subtlest shade of warmth to an otherwise poorly lit room. Cappuccino kitchen, Second Nature
Treat parts of your kitchen like large pieces of furniture – this run of units acts just as a large colourful dresser or as a brightly coloured sofa would. Kolari kitchen, Intoto
This kitchen has minimal colour, but its use does highlight the uniting effect of a strong shade in an awkwardly shaped space. Try similar tricks in an L-shaped kitchen or large kitchen diner. Mandarin kitchen, Smallbone
