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 when was the last time you priced out a kitchen remodel? 5k would maybe get you the cabinets

2-3k to paint existing cabinets, new hardware 4-5k epoxy floor and countertops 4-5k new appliances 3-4k left for drywall, paint, lighting, trim, framing, hvac, plumbing, electrical.

She could have gotten more for less but not by much when you are hiring it all out. Doesn't even look like she touched the tile backsplash, which would be 1-2k more.

I remodel kitchens in the midwest, and we would charge a lot more than that for this size kitchen. She clearly didn't spend for a designer, though.

Damn, I should get into home improvement. I always did all that myself which is why my estimate was so low.

Plus that doesn't look like a terribly expensive stove or sink.

The floor is also marble. And purple marble.

To be fair it also looks like a photoshop job.

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

[-] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 29 points 1 week ago

That floor would pair well with an uncontrolled structure fire.

15k on what exactly? They just painted the wooden doors of the old units purple.

On the drugs that convinced them to do this.

[-] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 week ago

Seems legit to me. Pretty much any kitchen reno is hard to keep under $10k. It adds up soo fast

I see no before picture so I assume the marble flooring and countertops. Plus the mosaic backsplash tiling maybe? And it's entirely possible those are brand new cupboards.

[-] bob_lemon@feddit.org 10 points 1 week ago

Not sure of that is real marble, but here's a random PSA anyway:

Don't put marble anywhere close to anywhere you might spill anything remotely resembling acid. You can literally etch that stuff with OJ.

Personally I like it, but I am well aware that I have tacky taste.

[-] bamfic@lemmy.world 23 points 1 week ago

Who's gonna buy it? Prince?

[-] doingthestuff@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Who? The former artist formerly known as?

The cabinets aren't so bad, paint isn't difficult. But the floors and countertops. Oof.

[-] Classy@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago

See I'm the opposite. The cabinets are an absolute eyesore, but the floor looks awesome. I would love to have a floor like that

I know several people who would pick this house just for the kitchen..

[-] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Is it wrong that I kinda fuck with it?

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

If you’re wrong I don’t want to be right

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

I’m absolutely one of them. It’s a bit wacky, but not non functionally so. My taste leans simple but bold

This is PhotoShopped, but...

If it were real, the problem isn't the purple. It's the white.

Corporations are purchasing unprecedented amounts of real estate, but it's definitely the market that's keeping this from selling.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago

I stand by that I fucking love that kitchen. Add a ton of modernist architecture that makes you think and a yard I’m allowed to grow food and replace the grass with mint and I’m in.

I think we all know the problem here. Need a custom purple range and different hardware on the cabinets, would've sold in 3 days easy

I think we've had this one before.

[-] normalexit@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

The top left, weird blank space where a cabinet should be bothers me the most. Overall this has a weird rental property vibe with the reused, painted cabinets.
