[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't do gray. It is a trend that will pass sooner than later.

If you go with a classic style, white is timeless.

When I think of white cabinets I think of the 20s-40s, not the 80s.

Gray will have a very short decorating lifespan, and then you will be stuck.  No on really wants to live in a battleship...[/quote]

White kitchens will soon be dismissed as so 2010 to 2015.   They probably account for ninety percent of new kitchens in the time period.[/quote]

No. You are very incorrect.

White is classic and timeless. It keeps coming back generation after generation. As long as you keep the cabinet designs classic white will stand the test of time.

Same with natural woodtones. Classic designs in natural woodtones will also have more staying power.

Gray is a trend. Just like avacado. And brown. And burnt orange or mustard.  [/quote]

We were house-hunting in the Princeton NJ area about 8 years ago...and saw a house with -- I kid you not -- burnt orange shiny lacquer cabinets. It was a fairly new renovation as well -- the cabinets were good quality -- but good God who thought it would be a good idea to choose burnt orange lacquer cabinets?

On the other hand I believe that house also had fake palm trees surrounding the goldfish pond in the back yard. Wonder if they ever found a buyer...[/quote]
