Why do modern kitchens lack the sovl of old kitchens? (This is the same kitchen before and after)
>>
>>22005666
Naa, the right is actually better here.

Soulless is something like pic related which is what every normie is doing. Bonus points if they go with gray instead of white.

Gotta minmax those resale values. God forbid we have warm or non-neutral colors, they might turn away otherwise interested families!(read: private equity firms)

>>22005708
The mismatching shades of white make me mad

>(read: private equity firms)
I mean, what the fuck do they care? Are they artificially inflating the demand for these color stylings? I don't think I know a single person irl who likes this aesthetic, but my dad was saying that it helps sell a house faster.

It's the kitchen equivalent of minimalist aesthetic design. Everything is flat and gay.
>>
>>22005666
so they put doors on the cabinets and cleaned up the fucking dishes? wow.
>>
>>22005763
>>22005768
>>22005768
the true strawman is acting like this is an issue at all and you can't just remodel your shit however you want it.
>>
>>22008251
every single one of these is overrated due to nostalgia, and flat design will also be overrated due to nostalgia in a few short years. frutiger aero is probably the most overrated. you can see the roots of flat design in it already. the consoles look terrible.

>>22005708
>oven/hood and counter are the only improvements

Just stain the cabinets darker ffs.

trvke.
you could probably get skins on your computer right now to look like frutiger aero and go buy a gameboy, wii and blackberry if you really want to live that life, but I doubt any of the people posting images like that would actually do that, because in reality it's outdated and cumbersome compared to what we have now. I have nostalgia too, but I don't actually want to go back, at least not for the technology itself.

and same goes for the kitchen in the OP. anybody who actually cooks would choose to cook in the modern kitchen every time. hell, it's not even that different from the old kitchen in the example, the old kitchen is just messy.
>>
Minimalist kitchens are much easier to cook in and keep clean than the wooden cluttered messes from the 90s/00s. They also look nicer. The flat white minimalist kitchens aren't a new thing either. They were popular with architects and smart interior designers in the late 90s and 2000s.

Everything has to be as clean as possible nowadays. Personally i never gave a fuck as a kitchen is a working place for me. I even just had pic related in the kitchen for everything once.
>>
>>22008352
it does give off mild poor vibes but in a comfy way, only thing I would change is the stove
>>
>>22005666
shelves with no doors is stupid as fuck. this is shit you will see in DIY magazine and people will feel like they are smart for doing them because their kitchens don't suffer from "DOOR SYNDROME"
open cabinet design just invites dust, and you will be spending a lot more time dusting your kitchen than cooking. and people who do this are retarded women that shouldn't be allowed to own or operate power tools.
its like owning a horse, yeah we all want one, but then you got to feed it and water it and make sure it gets its exercise everyday and brush its coat, and its a 1500 pound animal. and you are constantly restrained to this thing because you thought you wanted a horse because someone else in GQ or HGTV magazine said its a fabulous life to live. and you know, i really dont think you are smarter than the man who build your house, and god decided that there are going to be doors on the cabinets. YOU BETTER LEAVE IT THAT WAY YOU DUMB WOMAN.

this isn't some lost technology, it's wood and metal and maybe some stone, bricks, and/or paint. if you can describe it, someone can create it. so either you're bad at describing things, or you don't know what you want, or you can't afford it
>>
>>22008495
you cant fabricate authenticity
>>
Sterile white exteriors and interiors sell houses faster because they're billed as "a blank template" should the buyer want to paint it their own color.... Why they can't do this without first painting everything white? I don't know. But that's it, that's the reason.

>>22005708
>>22008352
These do look like poor people kitchens, the top one especially looks like any shitty apartment you see for rent.
I'm not even saying the woodgrain color is the culprit, it's more the fact that the doors are just flat slabs of pressboard with the world's cheapest handles. If you've ever been in a kitchen like that, you can just see these pictures and feel the stuffy air, stagnant lingering grease, the way the cabinet doors all have broken handles or hinges. You could take something like this, paint it blue or white or green or something, put better handles on it (not the shitty minimalist bars) and it would be good.

>>22008501
You can't meet a standard that consists of constantly moving goalposts, that's for sure

Visit any historical site with period buildings that have been maintained for hundreds of years and you can see it's not that complicated to produce newer things that blend in with older things

Now run along to your thread about mcdonalds changing the formica and how that ruined america or something
