Red Kitchens - love 'em or not?

I have a red kitchen. Not the cabinets, the walls. Many designers will tell you that red in the kitchen is a big no no. That it's too strong a color, that it's not relaxing, that you will be stressed when you cook in a red kitchen. (Mark Hampton wrote in his book On Decorating that kitchens and bedrooms should never be red.) I disagree, mainly with respect to kitchens. I'm not sure I would want to sleep in a red bedroom. But if that makes you happy go for it, because I love my red kitchen! The red is warm and enveloping and very homey - all words I would associate with kitchens.
When we were building our house, and the kitchen was coming together, the site supervisor told me one day that my kitchen might be an homage to the University of Georgia since their colors are red and black (I live in Atlanta). I was worried (I love UGA but not enough to have a UGA theme kitchen!), but calmed down when my better sense kicked in. It doesn't look like the UGA Spirit Store.
I adore red in a kitchen. Before I painted my walls red, I thought hard about painted red lacquer cabinets. Following are images of red kitchens to inspire us....
