girlfriend had automist system in her kitchen extension too. since it just had stairs leading straight down to open plan kitchen/dining then she either needed to put a fire door at the bottom of the stairs (and box in the staircase on the way down) or do the mist system.
the former would have looked shit, so she went for the automist. all good so far

Your layout is fairly unique. Usually the only way an escape route could lead near/through a kitchen is if you have a mist system, or sprinklers installed. Open plan room = corridor/escape route.
You would probably be expected to defend the front door from an overnight kitchen fire so the bedroom occupants had time to escape.
We've used Automist previously which was £2960 + VAT for the following:
2 x Automist smartscan systems
2x wall mounted emitters
2x hard wired Aico
Heat alarm
24 months warranty
Shout if you want other Automist details: pump location and water pressure might be tricky, etc.
