For me an ergonomic sink is a must!
Very similar to this Ferrari luxury kitchen sink center from KicheConcept.

I love the idea of stepping into the sink area instead of leaning completely over. A foot rest bar would be nice. I'd probably even go for a paisley or kidney shaped basin.
Color would be a must for me. I wouldn't have this solid red, too modern for me.

(But, if you like this, thank Kitchn.com.)
When my kids were younger they watched a show called Gulla Gulla Island. I remember the set had a colorful kitchen. I am leaning a wee bit in that direction, but on a more grown-up than pre-school level.
Actually, this blue/purple is the same color I purchased to paint the exterior of my home...with a yellow accents.
(hmmmm.......)
Now back to reality. I don't get new cupboards, I'm stuck with the ones I have.
I'm tempted to use my outdoor paint in the kitchen for my cupboards. I'll check with my local hardware store for safety issues.
The sink and work center is awesome, but I think unrealistic for many middle class homes.
