Sometimes, it's just fun to combine colors because you can. This kitchen has a joy to it that's infectious. The use of white softens the impact of the bright pink and stops it from being overwhelming. Notice what your eye does in response to where those colors break.
This is a color that's not unusual to see on toes at the beach in summer. I applaud someone making an unabashed commitment to it this way, and I'm guessing this person never has trouble finding conversation topics when entertaining.
The lady who grew up envying the doll who had everything can now live the dream in a pink kitchen of her own. Sleek cabinetry in a sweet, high-gloss pink is balanced by white lower cabinets and hardwood floors. This delicate balance keep the space contemporary and less confectionery.
A built-in table extends work surface, saves space and provides seating. I searched hard for a couple of pictures of this idea. The seamless integration of the round countertop/table is a smart use of floor space and provides seating for several people in the kitchen while not crowding the cook.
Commit: You have to know you really love bubble gum pink before this level of commitment. However, the payoff is big; it's striking and unique.

Put Resale Fears in PerspectiveWe are bombarded with TV shows and magazines that promote the idea that we should consider the next buyer of our home when making design decisions. Unless you plan on staying in your home for less than five years, throw that thought out the window fast. Anything you paint, install or refurbish today will most likely be out of style within five years. Consider the things you decided would have to change when you bought your current home. You can be certain that the people you bought it from thought it was fantastic and that you would not change a thing. The same will be true of the next owners. We all can remember the aunt that covered her couch in plastic, or a grandmother that left the plastic film on the lampshade in the fancy living room with the white carpeting. All they did was miss out on the opportunity of enjoying something they truly loved.
