Cabinets don't have to match?

I am looking at houses and came accross this picture. Is this a new trend? Shouldn't the cabinets match? I think my sense of order would drive me batty!

Ive seen when the base cabinets don't match the uppers, which I like but this I don't understand AT ALL.

Cabinets don't have to match?

Sorry but I think that looks silly... like they could only afford to do half of the cabinets.

It looks like they ran out of money 1/3 of the way through a reno.

That looks like a mess. I've seen it where the island doesn't match the rest of the cabinets which can look really nice but this I would drive me insane.

I've seen kitchens where the island is a different color, or like the PP said the uppers are different than the lowers, but this pic is nutty

ETA: Are they all the same cabinets but some of them have a dark stain? This is very bizarre.

Looks like they were in the processing of painting them. But gave up.
Looks terrible.

Re: Cabinets don't have to match?

I have only seen the trend where the island is a different color but it is usually in fancy very high end kitchens and probably planned by a designer. I am not a fan though.

Re: Cabinets don't have to match?

I like if the kitchen has an island, and the cabinets are different, but that is silly.

Re: Cabinets don't have to match?

A friend has cream cabinets everywhere, except her island where they are navy blue. It looks great! This is a mess:Chat Icon I've also seen upper one color and lower another which looks nice.

One of the kitchens I love is White up top, gray on the bottonm and marble countersChat Icon

I don't like this at all. What's making it worse is that the hanging cabinet on the right should be dark brown (assuming they were going for that alternating-color look). Bleh!

This is horrible. I dont mind if the island base is different than the main cabinets, but this shit is pure laziness.
