Need help for my living area.

Can any one help me on a decision of selecting a 6 seater dining table.
I have a white colour theme. The kitchen is white and the sofa selected is also white and the Center table has frosted green colour.
Following are my confusions. Am in a state if dilemma.
1. The design is mainly in a straight line hence whether a round table will gel or not. The dining area has an area of approx 75 sq ft. The radius of a short listed round table is 2.5 sq ft. The table top has a black glass with all six chairs in high gloss black colour fabric.
2. Or should we go in for a 6 chair rectangular table with a table top in frosted green colour of 21 sq ft with six chairs in black colour fabric.
3. Will a contrast of white and black look good or frosted green would look good.
Am confused.

You might consider also the space a round table has compared to a rectangular one. Usually, the round table of a 5 ft. diameter will not have a lot of room for 6 people to sit. It will be a little snug. Serving dishes will need to fit on the center of the table or off of the table. The rectangular table would offer more spacious seating for 6. Is it too large for your room? What are the dimensions of your dining room? (x ft. by y ft) As to your color palette, the contrast of black with other white furniture is interesting. Also, the green with the black and white could be quite unifying.

Rochelle, just wanted to take a moment and thank you for the very kind words you wrote about our company in your review. What a nice surprise, especially from such great clients as you and your husband. We unfortunately are in a time when people only seem to go to the trouble of writing reviews if they are unhappy with something - it really does mean a lot when a client reaches out just to say something nice. Hope all is well with you and your family. Thank you again, Joe

Oh wow! Thanks everyone... So so much... I would never have seen some of the things that you have pinpointed. I have already got the cabinet and under cabinet lighting, it was turned off when I took the earlier shots. I totally get the suggestion to remove the cabinets etc near the window but would prefer not too just yet... I am back pocketing that for next year! I will add some items on top of the cabinets, and the artwork that you suggested too in the meantime. The window seat I had in mind was for the living room area, instead of the two seater. Would that look better than the two piece, with colourful cushions, and if so should I add a built I cabinet for the tv (right beside it) in the same painted wood colour as the window seat? Also should I put curtains either side of the window seat if I opt to go with that, or stick just with colourful roman blinds? I will look into fixtures for lights and have already started the fabric hunt for curtains/roman blinds/ cushions etc. Also, what colour would you recommend to accessorise the room with?

Would paint a pale blue gray. It would go nicely with your cabinets. Add fabric to to windows and some trim around windows. Nice space

Hello CG, you can buy some of these and try them on site. From the pictures you posted I get the feeling you have 2 colors with similar saturation both fighting for attention. It's a little too much. I would keep the green but go softer on the red (i.e rust). You can also let yourself be inspired by the grey/silver/bordeaux floral and stripe pillows to create a brand new color scheme using these colors instead. For example, a very soft gray on the walls, gray carpet, grey/bordeaux combo in the curtains and for the sofa accents, pillows similar to these 2. It's decision time. Go for what speaks to you, but do it with elegance :-)
