Aly,
I have put together some points on this page to determine some of the often overlooked aspects of planning.
You may find some use in previous articles that I wrote:

Below are some photos of concept suggestions that I have, to surface mount conduit for the electrical, to paint the ceilings black and to use a an Ikea Kitchen. (its a slide show, you can click the arrows to speed through the grouping of photos)
The First grouping of photos are of electrical conduit in condominiums.
I have added some photos below for your consideration. After looking at the condition of the electrical in the apartment, my suggestion would be to go with a surface mounted conduit. This would be safer, and it would be easier to install.
This gives a sophisticated and timeless décor to the unit.
The Second grouping of photos are of condos with Black ceilings. with such high ceilings, and ceilings prone to staining, the black would give a warming allure to the unit that would stand out.
The Third grouping of photos are samples of budget friendly kitchens from Ikea. Ikea's mid and high range kitchens are of the dame quality found at Home Depot and Lowes, for a fraction of the price. They offer a beautiful assortment of options and designs.
A concept that I recommend to go with is white upper cabinets, which will keep the room bright at eye level, and use a darker color for the base. This will provide a pleasing contrast with a modern and contemporary yet timeless feel, and will not show the scuffs and dirt that is usually associated with lower cabinets.
These are just some preliminary thoughts...
