[quote=Anonymous]I like the first photo, but don't like the look in the second.

The first kitchen is pretty classic, and if you want to change the "mood" all you need is a can of paint. Floors are warm wood, and everything else doesn't really have a strong time-stamp on it (white cabinets, marble, dark not heavily patterned surfaces)  I have a very similar kitchen, and right now I painted it chocolate brown instead of gray. (in part because the previous owner did do a very strong brown speckled granite, so the gunship grey look didn't work for me). But I put in a white subway tile backsplash, to make it as neutral as possible.  If the trend changes and I want to change the look, all I need to do is put in a totally different color palate (pastel, bold red, whatever) and the kitchen will look totally different. You can also change the handles and pulls for a different look.

For the second, the lines are very modern and hard, the floors and cabinets make the kitchen look bottom heavy. To me those floors already look outdated (or something's off about them). That sleek line is a love-or-hate thing, and you can't really adjust that look by putting in new pulls. Backsplash is neutral enough.

But if OP is talking about those super sleek modern grey and shiny kitchens, yes, not my cup of tea at all.
