What does it look like now? Is that your current table & chairs? From what I see it appears that you should forget about a rug, size issue.

The rug and room are actually a little bigger this is an AI rendering of my home,. The scale is off some and no I do not have the furniture.

I do want to make clear that I love the furniture, and I actually love both designs. I am just asking which one you like the best?

Thank you. Did you choose the second one based on the rug? I did say above that the first rug has to be changed and I also said that the AI rendering did not get my room correct and yes the rug will be bigger and so will the room.

Just my preference but I like the one with the green draperies since it pulls the green from the kitchen into the space.

Hard to consider the dining room in isolation. Is the kitchen real? What does it look like behind the camera viewpoint?

I think blending is a good idea. I like the modern in organic modern (clean lines). Rounded shapes can get a little much and colors give the impression of looking through sepia-colored glasses.

thinkof129: so the kitchen and the dining room the layout are correct, it just looks a little smaller in the rendering than it does in person. There is a stairwell in-between the kitchen and dining room, it is open concept. However, the kitchen is my design of what is to come. I have one more option also just by changing the color of the leather

chairs out,

Re:rugs

I have read that one should allow 30" from the table edge so that chairs can be scooted in/out easily. Note that these dimensions do not account for a walkway or additional furniture.

Re:curtains

My wife chose a similar green for curtains that cover sliders on two sides of our dining room. Curtains are seven feet tall and ceilings are ten feet (no illusions to maintain).
