Well, sort of...

I really like this space, especially the walls.

They barely left enough room to get around the upholstered bench, it's way too large and that style has come and gone.

I really like this space, its nice, and light and airy. I would maybe add a bit more color in my ArtWork, but other than that, I really like it.....

I like the living area better then the dining space. The ottoman is too large so I'd replace it with something smaller. I like the pops of blue with the grey and neutral tones. The beams are nice. The walls are ok.

I don't like the dining table or chairs. I dislike the hanging platform with candles. I don't like the look or the dust it would collect.

Very nice space. I like the colors, decor, lighting,......it all works for me.

Nice space; I could enjoy a visit there if it belonged to someone I know, but this style is not me.

Beautiful & my style! Well, mostly, anyways ..

I'd remove the bench on the right side & add a tad more color to the room. The wooden beams are just the right amount, no more. I'd also replace the ceiling light fixture in the background dining room. Would love to live there, it's so bright & airy.

Thank you for sharing.

While I like the spaciousness of the area, I do not care for the furnishings or decor. I would change that. It needs some warmth.

Nice, but a little bland. Lacking personality.

Are the sparsely spaced beams the "rustic"?

Looks more beachy to me. I like it.

This living room/dining room is put together well but it's just not my style. I took one look at the shiplap and said, "nope, not for me". Those club chairs look uncomfortable too.

This seems to me a very specific taste that you don't want to veer from. While I find it attractive, I feel like I couldn'nt veer to much on this one and that would bother me.

For me, this is one of those rooms where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. I like the beams, the ship-lap, the prints and possibly the tufted ottoman, though I'd use it other than as a coffee table... Otherwise, none of these elements appeal to me and yet somehow the room comes off as being somewhat attractive, though not my taste. I detest that dining room light, and that style has become so trite. The space itself is pleasing but I'd like to start from scratch with the decor.

@sceniccoast Somehow I sort of suspected you'd like this one... With you completely on that awful dining room light fixture...

@faeriemoon Pretty much yes to the beams and the rustic... I came across additional pictures of this one that I'll post later... Even with the added vignettes, the 'rustic' is, to me, a stretch...
