If you upload a sketch of the kitchen floorplan (with measurements) you'd likely get some more feedback.

Need ideas for matching kitchen around cooker.

I would suggest white cabinets with a dark grey Caesarstone counter. The splashback will be the variable with lots of options. This scheme is a lighter and more neutral alternative to the masculine dark grey. Both are great! Good luck, Mary

I would move the table to the window end of the room for view out and light while you eat . Perhaps turn it 90 degrees if that would work with the door opening. You may be able to seat 4. Make the rest of the right hand wall - about half of it a floor to ceiling wall of built in storage including the fridge. Suggest deep drawers for lower and double door pantry cupboards sitting above. The left hand wall in a long line of counter top with the cooker, sink, washing machine, lower cupboards or drawers. Tile backsplash along whole wall and two long open shelves plus art. Definitely replace the flooring - timber or even black and white checkerboard.

Help with Kitchen/Dining area layout - new build

I think I would have one set off steps down and move the dividing presses to the side where your sink is, making it a peninsula. That would make for a nice L shaped banquette seating area where your blank wall is, and the gallery backdrop would be great there. You could also have a nice long table as opposed to the small square one. I also hope you don't mind me saying that I think you need to reconsider the placement of your hob. It's right beside a door which will be awkward and you have your back to the room when entertaining. You will have such a nice kitchen that you should make the most of it for entertaining. Even you consider putting it on the island facing the dining area?

Need help for layout of new extension
Q

If I'm being honest, I'm really not sure on this layout. You have services on both sides of the extension, which even with my limited knowledge of building is expense that you could avoid. Do you need a laundry and a utility, or could you combine them.? Also I hate the idea of a toilet off the kitchen. The garage also looks small. Could you take out the door on the garage and make that the bathroom off your corridor, and make the corridor your utility. Then you have all the space free where the new bathroom and utility are. If you want more space for the utility and bathroom I would suggest bringing that wall in (make kitchen and dining narrower) and that would have the advantage of making your study wider. One other point is that leaving the study there with a window to the side will make the kitchen very dark.

There you go, free kitchen designs ;) (created with ikea kitchenplanner)

First one has nearly the same layout as the old one, but less full. Drawers under and cabinet above oven make up for some lost upper units. Two spacious corner units (take at least one with pullout plateaus, great for pans!) and for the classical symmetric looks two 20cm units next to sink and dishwasher. Also because you don't want the dishwasher completely in a corner. Cooktop above 80cm drawer unit, 60cm drawers left of it. Upper units are 40+80+40, as you want to be able to reach all of it.

Second one has one long worktop and tall units opposite. Sleek looks. Instead of the cupboard I placed a shallow unit with upper in the corner, imagine fruit bowl, keys, toaster, breadbox.. Tall units are fridge, oven, 40cm with shelves (or some extra drawers behind doors). The upper unit above the sink is no more than 40cms high (and hangs 60cms above counter), but great to install some worklight under.
