We just completed a kitchen/livingroom reno. A large wall was taken down between the kitchen and livingroom. A new fireplace and recessed lights were added and also an island was created… I need help deciding on a light fixture and if I should keep my dining table or any ither suggestions would be greatly appeciated.

Area rugs for both the dining area and the living room. They will make the room feel less stark and will add some color. I'd go with blue, green, or red in muted tones.

Yes definitely, I have a more natural colour palette (beige, rust and grey). The larger the better I believe?

Lovely views. Rugs will definitely warm things up and add personality. You can upload your photos to sites like Rugs Direct and you can try out rugs in your space.

I'd do one for the dining area and one for the living area. Make sure you get the proper size for each space.

Do the rugs need to be the same colour to match each other?

The rugs don't need to be twins but do need to look like they belong to the same family.

Are you looking for light fixture suggestions for over the table?
