How does the size of the kitchen affect the color palette choices?

Most people think a large kitchen can accommodate a lot of color, but I feel that too much color in a large space can be overwhelming, in such a setting, the space itself provides Plenty of drama, so I often use a more delicate palette to keep the overall impression in scale, in smaller kitchens, you can have more Fun with color because the space functions much like a piece of art thats viewed singly and in its totality.
