it's just a description of a type of kitchen, just a wall with all the the cupboards, other storage facilities and some kitchen appliences. Kitchenette could eventualy do but I'm looking for a more modern word if there is one.

Could we please have the sentence from which 'kookwand' comes.

cooking area/unit

Kijkend via google images onder "kookwand" zie ik dat ze het hebben over een spoelwand en een kookwand:

Het mag modern zijn, uit losse elementen bestaan, maar volgens mij gaat het uiteindelijk om de "kookeenheid."
Zie hier voor een keur aan ultramoderne keukens, waar in de tekst naar cooking unit of area verwezen wordt:

US english commonly talks about cooking area and wet area --> kookwand & spoelwand

Wall unit sounds good, it doesn't distinguish kook- vs spoelwand though, which may be essential depending on the context.
Note from asker:
we finally choose "wall unit" for the description.
