:: needs a bit more colour... we have far too many white kitchens. Aslo i think you would benefit if you changed the camera angle a bit. ::

:: I think the other angle is better, but the camera has a bit of distortion. Maybe by lowering the target and rotating by a bit... but do something about those materials, they look too sanitised at the moment::

Not a bad looking kitchen at all but there are a couple of things i have to say.. hope you don't take this the wrong way now. From a quick first observation this is what i see..
- Color.. where's the color ?! it's too cold and monotone looking with just polished aluminium.
- It reminds me of a morgue
that's the most scary part and it has alot to do with what i wrote above.
- Curtains to cover the windows
- Plants such as flowers
- Too many sharp edges and corners..
- Kitchen tools hanging down above the place where you stand and do your dishes isn't a too clever design feature, move those things back close to the wall or else you hit your head in the fryingpan everytime.
- Some cookingbooks in the shelf to the right
- A carpet on the floor.. it looks kinda cold like that now

Hi – nice kitchen: just a few comments on your model. Cabinets have a pretty fixed set of measures based on the human body. The lack of these is what stands out most to my eye – but then I am an Architect.
The dimensions: from the floor to a ceiling.
1 – the kick space – sometimes drawers – 10cm – 30cm. 30cm of empty space looks very cool.
2 – bottom cabnet – top edge 90cm above the floot. Counter top 3cm is typical – keep to that 90cm push it down.
3 – 60cm space over the counter top.
4 – top cabnets are again 60cm – 80cm. These start 140cm over the floor and go to aprox. 210cm at the top edge. Which is even with the top of a standard door.
Regarding the colors – I would try to find a three color pallet that you think is cool. Look in a fashion mag or in a design book and use that as a point of departure. Colors are a question of taste and it is as much about finding the feeling that you want the image to have.
Good luck – taste is a difficult play ground and kitchen have it in more ways than one.
All the best -
