If you go for a quartz or other solid surface, then any fabricator should be able to do a table for you. You need to face the back with something, we used mdf when we did it, and attach legs of your choice. In laminate you would need to buy a breakfast bar type top and use edging strips on the ends, so would have width limitations.

The OH sprayed our kitchen cabinets with a professional spray gun, but he did have all of the proper specialist masks and protective clothing etc. He set up a spray booth - inside while the kitchen was being remodelled and then outside in a gazebo once the kitchen had the flooring done. The finish was excellent and where we've needed to touch up, he's just done it with slightly watered down paint on a sponge or brush. We've rollered and brushed units before and spraying gives by far the best finish and soooooo much quicker. We went for F&B Oval Room Blue - the reason being the F&B paints are perfect for use with a spray gun, whereas a lot of "matched" paint doesn't spray as well and clogs the gun. Doesn't the kitchen manufacturers have a standard colour you like or could you choose a RAL colour you like. Alternatively, wouldn't the manufacturers just paint it with F&B paint for you?

I think your existing plans are fine. You could either leave the structure as an interesting oddity or get a carpenter to tidy it up with panelling and a level shelf on top. The sprightly amongst us might manage to perch on top with a few cushions for comfort! Or going back to my thoughts about putting a bed there. I was thinking of a bespoke bed frame that is built over the structure extending beyond the window either side up to the width of a double bed. You could possibly have a deep bedhead incorporating a shelf. A carpenter could advise you on the practicalities of this before you commit.
