[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Like everything else, I think what matters most is the rest of the house.

In a sweet cottage? I think they’ll look great for decades. Incongruous blue shaker cabinets in a 70’s split level? No. [/quote]

What DOES go with a 70s split level? I have pretty traditional style and it feels like every cabinet style is either modern (plain front) or a variation of shaker.[/quote]

Imo flat fronts. That’s one style of house where I think it’s hard to go against the architecture with the decor. [/quote]

I agree that flat fronts are best here, but white or bright colors or wood could all work. Metal sink, not farmhouse. Lots of hardware, backsplash, and countertop options but I would avoid something very country or French Colonial or otherwise really out of step with the architecture...unless you LOVE it and plan to be in the house a long time.

So do people in homes built in the 80s have to use 80s decor? Come one. Your decor does not have to match the exterior style of your house.[/quote]

The decor doesn’t but the built in elements, which includes kitchen cabinets, should be cohesive. They don’t have to be original or something that could have been original, but they need to have something that connects them to the rest of the house. [/quote]
