Hi AT,

I had written in earlier about the dining area being at the entry way (see the entry after the jump) and I think the drop-leaf would be great. This table looks great online and comes at good price too. I was thinking of a dark espresso coffee table and side tables. This table has a cherry finish. So I was wondering if it's okay to have different finishes?

2006_09_04_dining.jpg"The kitchen counter is right next to the big closet that can be seen in the picture. The living room does not have any furniture right now, but I have ordered a white leather couch with 2 armless brown/mocha microfiber chairs. Other than that there is no furniture in the living + dining area.

Thanks a ton,
Miradula

There are no hard and fast rules around these things. What do you all think?
