The Kitchen that costs more than the average UK house

If you're a sucker for luxury then this kitchen made from 24 carat gold leaf and Venetian glass might just be your thing.But the £300,000 price tag - well over the average UK house price - might put you off.
Unveiled at the 100% Design show at Earls Court this weekend, the Colosseo Oro kitchen by London-based Marazzi Design is thought to be the most expensive kitchen in the world.
Only ten will be made, with luxury features including 24 carat gold leaf, crocodile embossed leather, Swarovski crystal lights and glitter lacquered worktops.

The appliances alone including a freezer, refrigerator, wine storage, oven, microwave, and electric cooker supplied by Sub-Zero & Wolf will set you back £55,000. While Zaha Hadid - the architect named the most influential thinker of 2010 by Time magazine - has designed a tap costing an extra £6,000
