Really like the counter top combination. To create a finished look (rather than a haphazardly thrown together look), you should probably use the same color on both vertical spaces -- the same color as is between the diamond shapes on the wall.

Hello Swati, Regarding built-in ovens, most of these ovens work in a similar manner, the only difference is in their capacity, an oven with a moderate capacity of 67-70 liters should be more than adequate. If we talk about different companies, most of the built-in ovens are same, whether they are built by one company or another, what's more important is the after sales service and we have had great experience with hindware built-in ovens but you can also go with faber or elica(they are a bit more expensive).

The distance between chimney and hob needs to be 26"-30" : 65cm-80cm. placing it above the window, suction power is reduced, placing it in middle of the window, will make the window ineffective. Island chimneys are best suited to be positioned in middle of the room, the duct running through false ceiling. also they fall in the expensive category. it is best that you move the hob position to side of the window, or totally to the other side and do chimney core cutting there.
