Kitchen Cabinet Color - should it match w/the Trim of the house

I did a quick google search and I found a similar post:

[https://www.houzz.com/discussions/do-cabinet-colors-have-to-match-throughout-house-dsvw-vd~715839[(https://www.houzz.com/discussions/do-cabinet-colors-have-to-match-throughout-house-dsvw-vd~715839)

But that's not what my question is. Here is the situation. My current kitchen has a dated 80's look (honey oak cabinets) that matches with the hardwood floor, floor wood trims and doors of the rest of the house. Is there a rule of thumb as far as choosing the right color for the kitchen cabinets? Does it have to match the floor wood trim? I also have a door that goes from the kitchen to the basement, that is also a honey oak color. I am just wondering if it would look weird if my kitchen cabinets were to be dark brown or a maple color.

Thanks!
