I agree with bringing more black in there.

I have this one (but in gold), and trust me when I say the colors are much more muted and darker in person than on the website. I nearly didn’t order because of that, glad I did. I really like it and get a lot of compliments on it. The companies that sell it really need to get better pictures of it!

It’s indoor/outdoor, but has a soft feel. Very easy to clean.

Here’s one I think would also tie in well with your dining rug:

Both of these, or something similar, would coordinate with the natural and organic features you have (woven shades, art).

Look at the Ruggable selection of black-shaded rugs. Those are nice because you can pull off the top and run it through the washer. Measure your space in the kitchen? The one in there now looks small for the floor size.

The dining area rug is too small for the table. Keep in mind that sizing a rug for a table means adding 3' bigger all around the table.(That allows chairs to be pulled back comfortably, and keeping the four legs on the rug.) Why not put that rug in the kitchen. Using a rug makes the dining space look so small. Leave the floor bare.

Suggest black and something modern to work with the art and dining room’s rug, to help coordinate the entire area.
