White appliances will never go out of style.
The only thing that bugs me about the picture in the first post is that nasty textured finish on the refrigerator.
Such a crud magnet! Everything else is okay.
I don’t know why a kitchen, which is an intensive workroom, has to be “on trend” anyway.
"Have kitchen remodel style trends stayed frozen for last 20 years ?"
No.
1. Quartz is the "in" material now for countertops.
2. Drawers in the lower cabinets, not cupboards.
3. White cabinets are all the rage.
4. Stainless appliance still popular, but manufacturers are trying hard to popularize other colors such as slate.
5. LED lighting has changed everything.
The countertops you pictured are not granite at all. Granite is a solid stone surface; laminate is a manufactured POS. Solid stone surfaces will always be in style, but the actual pattern and color may not. Laminate, I don't believe, was ever in style. It was just a low-grade builder's way to save money on countertops.
Corian countertops, the rage in the 90s, is definitely dated now.

Thanks. Good post.
Can you explain #2 ?
I thought white cabinets are totally outdated even 20 years ago!
I can't believe a 20 year old stainless is not outdated yet!
Magnolia Farms and European kitchens are in, stained oak and granite is out. Thank God.
