Here is a rant, and I hope no one gets hurt in the process, haha:

I love white kitchens and think they are classic, and I also think white/ ivory/cream kitchen cabinets in a traditional style are entirely appropriate for my Victorian city house and my Hermann cottage.

But renovators and home decorators have so overdone white kitchens in recent years, I hesitate to put white cabinets in our Hermann house. That’s what I gravitate to, but I dont want my kitchen to look circa 2018. I dont want it to be entirely common.

Driving home this stupid trend was a TV show I watched recently. It’s a reality show about the Hollywood set. An actor and his wife bought a 70s style split foyer house they are renovating. They are putting in sleek and modern finishes. Oh wait – the kitchen is going to be—and this is a direct quote, “farmhouse style.” It will have one of those dumb sinks that hang out and white cabinets. Because yeah, they live in a farmhouse. In the Hollywood hills. In their 1974 split foyer box.

A sleek and modern kitchen would be great in that box. Too bad the owners are devoid of imagination, and they even have a decorator who should be guiding them to something less stupidly trendy for their box.
