So colour wise we went Skylight and Juniper Ash, one is a Farrow and Ball colour the other is Little Green. We have Brass Handles and steel butt hinges. We have not painted the kitchen yet but the walls will be skylight as well. Flooring will be Amtico with a border / parquet.
Appliance wise we had two ovens , steam oven, microwave, two tall fridge freezers and a dishwasher. Quooker hot tap with sparkling. Kohler is the cast iron sink. Appliances set us back £14k....
Worktop and splash backs are black / grey granite with a leathered finish.
Our kitchen is 25m2, we set ourselves a budget of £40k on the kitchen and then sailed passed that

That's one huge kitchen! And it must already look incredible. V. happy for you.
Mine's 15m2 and I'm only going for a single large oven, but a 6 zone induction hob, dishwasher, washing machine and standard fridge freezer.
Modest kit out really, and keeping all appliances simple, honest, but really high quality.
Never had a need for a grill, nor more than a single oven, and the flat is only 2 bed and I'm a sole occupant... so a single oven is good for me and will be good for a small family too.
The induction hob though... this is where I'm putting the money. I do far more on the hob than anywhere else, and do wish for the hood to intelligently turn on for the appropriate area and extraction rate depending on what the hob is doing. So that stuff I'm sparing no cost on.

Ah lovely.
Does this thread do component breakdowns? :D
I'm thinking of doing a dark green paint on the cabinets, a sage green on the walls, a white quartz worktop, predominantly Miele appliances, brass handles and lighting (but Philips Hue inside), and a grey brushed slate or similar flooring.
It seems silly to not consider Miele or equivalent when the difference between £6k of entirely average appliances and £10k of insanely good appliances, as a % of the total cost of the kitchen really isn't that huge. It feels like once you've agreed to spend £20-25k that spending £25-30k and for it to enhance the total house value... it's just a no-brainer. Plus the hob and oven, those things likely never change in the life of the kitchen so going for the top at the outset seems wise.
What are the Bora and Kohler things you have? The Quooker is the tap right?
