But the Los Carnales would!
Except for the purple, it is a nice kitchen.
Purple is just the color we see least in nature. That is why it is associated with unfamiliar things like aliens, magic, lovecraftian gods, ...
So having it in your house makes you have less of an attraction with it.
Here is the same picture, but just with a different hue:
I’m now convinced they just hue shifted the image for memes.
The black on the marble looks very purple so I'd hazard to say there's a high chance of that
Those cabinets in brown are hideous. I'm not a fan of the purple, either, but at least it has character.

NGL the epoxy floor and countertops look sick.
But it's just way too much purple for a kitchen, or any room really
I like the countertops... in the picture. The floor looks like I'm back in a mcdonalds in the 90s.
Man you had some fancy McDonalds!
But I do agree there is something about this that makes it look like a toy kitchen set.

People shit on "acceptable beige", "agreeable gray" (aka "millennial gray"), etc. but the problem is most things that people like more are more divisive. The people that live this kitchen I'm sure LOVE this kitchen. But for everyone else it's a pass.
Speaking as one of the "everyone else", it's not just a pass on the kitchen, but a deal-breaker for the entire house. I look at this and all I see is so many of my weekends being wasted getting it to a state that my wife and I would even consider acceptable.
Exactly. And the fact that they sunk so much into the renovation is upsetting. When I sold my house my wife and I briefly considered fixing some stuff up but it's like... I'm gonna pay some big amount of money then charge more but if I don't I can sell for less and sell quicker. Then again it's not like the house was a mess. Plus this was during the craze of 2021 so getting offers wasn't a concern.
Nevermind the purple, although it's ugly as hell, but having that dead space in the corner doesn't leave much room for prep work, since both ends are also basically useless for anything you actually do in the kitchen except perhaps as temporary storage. This leaves you with exactly one place to actually prep on, and it's not exactly a large one either.
We also know full well that the corner would be full of appliances as well, which leaves us with even less room.
Shitty kitchen all around, imo.
But the cabinets are too low to fit appliances under them.
I don't know if I would actually want it but it's definitely pretty.
that was very definitely predictable
Nice kitchen. Mine is orange.
Swap the metal surfaces out for bronze / gold-color-aluminium-plating maybe
My question isn't their taste, but their budget. How the hell did that kitchen cost $15,000? Even if they had to replace everything I couldn't see it being more than $5k.
Is the floor also marble?
Lol an IKEA kitchen now a bit bigger than that is 10k€ without placement and composite counters and no floor. Prices have over doubled in the past 5 years. + floor and actual stone countertop is easily 15k
We are renovating our entire house and doing everything except pouring concrete slabs and our tile roof ourselves and the kitchen this big + and island is 15k€ at good value places, slightly better places are 25k+ with placement.
5k is an absolute pipe dream. Wholesale materials alone without appliances would be around 9k (assuming decent quality cupboards and real stone)
That assumes you're starting with new as opposed to reclaimed materials. I saved a bundle by taking someone else's old kitchen cabinets and reusing them.
But, as I said in another comment, I am an old person who used to buy gas for less than 25¢ per liter and do everything myself so my prices are skewed.
15k is a very normal price to flip an entire kitchen. Not even counting the appliances. Just the flooring and cabinets.

Man, I love me some purple/violet, but this just ain't it
Although I don't hate the floor. With something complimentary going on it would actually look good imo
