Kitchen cabinets with different colors.....

on the top and bottom.

What do you think?

Here are a few examples of what I'm asking about.

For the most part, I don't care for it.

That first kitchen with the grey and white though, I'm kind of liking the look!

I have seen this done , I dont care for it. I am very partial to all white kitchen cabinets, my personal taste.

I currently have all white cabinets. The only ones shown that I didn't like was the 2nd picture. The others I thought looked nice.

I've never seen this before. I don't like #2 at all but the rest all looked pretty nice. There's too much contrast, for me, in #2.

Most of the time it looks like the are in the middle of a remodel or that they didn't have enough money to buy matching cabinets, and just bought some left over stuff to complete the kitchen! lol

I guess I need more matching, for the most part!

I like it in theory. What I really like is large kitchens with no upper cabinets. My neighbor just did that to her kitchen and it looks great. I also have had a friend who did that but in place of the upper cabinets she put wire shelves like in restaurant kitchens. I wish I had enough space to do that. .

I like the idea, and I like a lot of the photos I've been seeing--but not all. It really depends on how it's done, and how it suits the space it's in. Here are two I like:

I typically don't like white or two tone cabinets, but I kinda like the first picture.

I like the look of 2 different cabinet color, but in the photo the color of the counter tops doesn't work. Gray and white marble would look beautiful.

We remodeled our kitchen almost 3 years ago, and the pantry and end cabinets are dark brown. The other cabinets are off white. Don't have an island (not enough room).

I like it.

I have a friend that remodeled her kitchen and had the look similar to the first photo.

Personally, it's not at all my taste. My kitchen cabinets are dark wood and look expensive.

I’ve never seen anything like this before, but really like pictures 1 and 3.

It has to be done right and personally I think all the examples are off. The cabinets are cheap and some of the appliances are different colors. Just my opinion

I like the first one the best. The colors have to perfectly blend for the two tone look to work, otherwise it looks like a mistake.

I have squirreled this picture away for future reference as I like it a lot.

I love the first and last pictures.

I think what I love about the first pic is that the white cabinets on top, gray on the bottom are unified by the backsplash being both white and gray. That uttimately ties everything together and makes it look uniform.

Even though the last pic doesn't tie in with the backsplash, for some reason, I find it very pleasing to my eye! But then again, I like things that are unique.

I've seen it done well and it looks nice. None of the pictured examples does much for me. I think the look probably is best with sleek, modern cabinets with very little hardware. While this isn't a look I'd embrace, it can be appealing, again, if done well. It might also work with a Boho design theme, where there's not necessarily a desire for a coordinated look.

For the most part, I hate it, tbh.

Sometimes if the island (or bar) is different, it doesn't look too bad.

I do like the pic of the two tone cabinets @Kachina624 posted, although I'm not a fan of white appliances.

Mind you, I've had white appliances and white cabinets, but the appliances are never the 'same' white. Oven doors and dishwasher doors are usually an optic white, not matching the refridgerator or the cabinets. It really stood out to me.

I think they can be gorgeous:
