- Adding a colorful buffet that contrasts with existing elements can enhance a dining room's visual appeal without clashing with other finishes.  - Rugs in the dining room are essential for breaking up wood tones, protecting floors, and adding a cohesive design element, ideally chosen with a low pile and a pattern to camouflage stains.  - Asymmetrical gallery walls above a sofa are more visually appealing with an odd number of frames, and incorporating toddler-friendly baskets on bookshelves can maintain both functionality and style.
