Stoke kitchen creativity. June McLeod, color expert with Colors of the Soul, says orange stokes health and creativity. People who like orange are often people pleasers and love to share. This combination would make an orange kitchen a great place for conjuring up a feast for friends.However, McLeod has conducted research on how people behave in different colored kitchens, and warns to be careful with the color: "In orange kitchens people are more prone to be slapdash," she says, "so if you decide on an orange theme, you need to make an effort to be organized in order to prevent disaster."
