A photo of the door wall would help.

if you already have a cozy family room elsewhere in the home, I would get two identical sofas and additional low back swivel chairs to seat 8 comfortably.

If your dining table seats 8, you need comfy seating for 8. for before and after dinner conversation.

whatever your style is, and an area rug.

It looks like one open room. I would use complementary rugs to help visually define your spaces - entry, sitting area and dining area.
Do you need privacy or light control on your windows or do you just want decorative panels? Or both?

Can you post a rough floor plan of the space? It's hard to tell if the angles are photo distortion or a room feature.

An arrangement like this could work.

Love that you’re thinking intentionally about this transition space, entries set the tone, and living areas anchor it. The key is to define each zone without closing it off. Use a rug or console table near the entry to subtly mark that zone, and hang a mirror above it to bounce light and create an inviting first impression.

For the living room, anchor seating around a focal point, a fireplace, window, or artwork, and make sure your rug is large enough to pull everything together (front legs of furniture on the rug is a good rule). Add layered lighting: a mix of overhead, floor, and table lamps to balance coziness and brightness. Finally, tie the two spaces together through color continuity, even a repeated accent shade in pillows, art, or décor will make the flow feel intentional and cohesive.

A sofa and two chairs, or a small sectional and a chair could work well in this space. Below are two ideas for furniture that might work for you.
