Advise on ground floor extension layout

Hi, we're in the early stages of planning a double storey side and first floor rear extension to our traditional 1930s house. Our architect has drawn up some plans and whilst they do achieve most of what we are after, I'm not sure we're making the best use of the space.
I think my preferred plan is below but I'm worried that because of the door to the utility room, the allowed kitchen won't have enough cupboard or worktop space (I ideally want a bank of full height units for fridge and oven and not have the hob or sink on the island).
The architects answer was to extend further single storey out the back to give a longer run of units but this pushes us over our already tight budget and seems a mad use of money simply to provide space for a to access the utility room.
Any ideas for a better solution?
This is the existing house so you can see the difference.
