Help please: what do I put on dining room wall?

13 years ago

After over a year in this home, I still haven't found anything to hang on this dining room wall. This is the wall in question:

The large space is definitely throwing me off. Also, I have a hard time finding art I like or expect to like for a long time. Additionally, DH and I have very different preferences for art. He will be ok with anything I choose, but I would like to find something for the space we both enjoy.

My main question is, how large should the wall art be for this wall and would you do multiple pieces or one large piece?

Some dimensions:

* the wall is 11'6"W x 13'4"H

* the top of the entryway/column openings are at 7'8" (this is also the midway point for the windows)

* the table diameter is 57"

My instinct is to fill a rectangular space, centered above the chairs and below the 7'8"H (top of columns.) Thoughts?

Possible projects for that space:

* lower that chandelier (yeah?)

* wrap the inside of the entryways/openings with wood painted white, add white door trim around them, add white wainscoting around the room and around the columns
