Light Oak Dining Room Furniture

Hi. I need help with painting my living room and the dining room. I have chocolate brown sofas/coffee table, beige carpet in the living room. The Dining room has Oak Furniture. The entrance has Brazilian Cherry Color Hardwood. The living room and the dining room are attached. I don't want to paint it a really dark color because then it will make the entire area seem small. I was thinking of doing something light all over with a dark accent color. Can you please suggest some colors?

play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to help you imagine how the colors will look together. It is the best paint visualizer on the web, imho. I like how their color palette is laid out, I like that you can search by color family & color name, the "painted" rooms look the most realistic, and it suggests coordinating color schemes. You can literally spend hours:

I think "eaglet beige" (# 7573) with an accent wall in "enticing red" (# 6600) might be a good choice.

You can take a photo of your house & upload it to the makeover gallery on this website:

You can get color suggestions & for $5 they'll photoshop them onto your room so that you can get an idea of what it will look like.

I have light oak dining room furniture and will soon be putting in hardwood flooring. Does the color in each, have to match or should they contrast with one another?

Your floor choice should not depend on your furniture color as it will be there for a very long time and your furniture may be replaced in the future. So, why restrict yourself?
A medium oak will be better for resale and also much easier to maintain. Darker floors show the dust more. Your best to place an area rug down to break it up. If you think about it, would you not move into a home based on your furniture? Choose something that goes with the style of your home. I have used walnut floors in a very formal area with mahogany furniture but...had large Persian rugs to set the furniture on. For resale it wasn't the best choice as people have different styles of furniture. Look at the white and red oak.

My living room and kitchen area are almost one large, great room space. I have light oak cabinets, trim on the windows,and kitchen dining floor. I would like to purchase new furniture in the navy and white combination uplostery. Will this work? One salesperson said that I shouldn't do it, but go for the warm tones.

I think it would look great. If you think about a color wheel, w/the yellow/orange tones of the oak cabinets on one side, you'll notice that blue shades are opposite on the wheel. So navy would make for a nice contrast to the warm tones of the cabinetry. Also, any shade of blue is a classic pairing w/white and wood tones, people do it all the time (including myself)! Go with what you like; the salesperson won't be living in your house.

My living and dining rooms are in an open L shape. The walls are pale cream. Dining room furniture is cream lacquer with brass trim. Living room furniture is a cream background with a narrow old rose stripe and a wide delicate leafy floral stripe in pale green/old rose/blue. I have two slate-ish blue chairs. The floors are oak hardwood (I just ripped up cream wall to wall). I need area rugs, but I'm baffled by trying to get something to go with the floral furniture. I thought to get a green in the living room and the same rug but lapis in the dining room. I don't want anything dark, my whole house is airy and light colored. I'm looking at Milliken border rugs. I like the Remington but am afraid it's too severe. I looked at one with an Ionica border, but am not sure about the floral border with my floral furniture even tho they are both delicate. Oriental style is not an option. I have grandsons who are often here so a too light color might not be good. Any help is greatly appreciated.
What I really need is suggestions on patterns.

Go into your local carpet store and select a really nice carpet that suits your style. Have them order a large enough piece and have it bound to the exact size you want it.

Then you can get a really nice, well wearing rug and not spend an arm and a leg on it.

I have light oak furniture. I figured a dark color would look nice but I can't decide on a color. Your opinions please?
I have crown molding and chair rails throughout my dining room too.

How about "sapphire" by sherwin williams?

if you want a second color to go below the chair rail, then I'd use the "Honey Blush" color that they suggest.
