Nice "lego" kitchen! Are you reassembling it the same way it's shown in the pic with the range/cooktop on the wall and using the decorative hood? (I hope so!)
Now the practical/functional point of view....
Cabinets-to-the-counter...it's a nice look and if you have room, then go for it...but be sure you have enough counterspace in the right places. Just having counterspace for the sake of counterspace isn't the goal, the counterspace needs to be in the right places for a truly functional kitchen. Counterspace in other areas is usually considered "wasted" unless you design a Baking Center, Beverage Center, Snack Center, etc. into the less-useful places. So...
Be sure you have enough work room around each appliance/fixture not counting the small bit of counter that will be in front of those to-the-counter cabinets (that counter is pretty much useless...see point 2)
Around the sink, you should have 24" on each side of the sink that's not shared with the range or refrigerator for landing and/or work space. If it's shared, add another 12" to 18".
Around the range, 24" on each side for work space, emergency landing space, and general landing space that's not shared w/the sink's work/landing space.
Next to the refrigerator or across from it no more than 48" away (actually, make that 42" away b/c you won't have the reach of someone taller), 18" (not shared w/anything else).
For work space in the Prep Zone, at least 36", preferably not shared with the Cleanup Zone but OK to be shared w/the Cooking Zone.
The Prep Zone should be next to a water source and near the Cooking Zone. Oh, and it should contain the trash pullout (if you have one) or at least have the trash pullout very close by (trash pullouts are most useful in the Prep Zone and near the Cooking Zone but also accessible from the Cleanup Zone).
If the Prep Zone will be sharing the sink with the Cleanup Zone, then aim for at least 42" of workspace on the Prep Zone side of the sink. To make up for the loss of counter space for the Cleanup Zone on the prep side, I recommend 30" to 36" of counterspace on the other side of the sink.
Be sure the DW is not in the Prep Zone or b/w the range and sink or b/w the refrigerator and range and/or b/w the any of the three: refrigerator/range/prep sink (if separate sink).
Keep in mind the workflow is: Refrigerator/Pantry --> Prep Zone --> Cooking Zone --> Serving or Cleanup Zone. So, try to have the Prep Zone flow into the Cooking Zone without crossing the Cleanup Zone (or DW). The goal is to have no zone-crossing so more than one person can work in the kitchen at one time.
Realize that the counter in front of those to-the-counter cabinets is useless. Not only will it be too shallow a space to do much on it, but it will need to be completely clear to access the drawers or doors that are at the counter level. The only way to avoid this is to get a "tambour" or garage-style door. Any other style door or drawer will...
