You biggest issue is low natural light. That is when I treat any room as if it were facing North. Two North colors which will correspond to silver half dollar (although a basement color need not be included..it was a link for me). I would go red or blue…nixing red…because you are painting more than just the kitchen... B.M. Sea Reflections. Add soft yellows: This Sunbrella sofa is a buy! https://www.jossandmain.com/-BRWT4699-L305-K~BRWT4699.html?refid=GX93152586254-BRWT4699&device=c&ptid=324073240458&targetid=pla-324073240458&gclid=Cj0KCQjw9uHOBRDtARIsALtCa9516PkE_C9ZuvwnagwnUDxzskG2CgQUW4huzBB7dYkcJ7tocAz85RkaArTKEALw_wcB

It is really hard to visualize without pics. I know you aren't in the space yet, but could you at least link to a pic of the dining set? And the sofa? And a photo of your chandelier since it sounds like you have that in your current home? It sounds like the kitchen is a black/white color scheme. A lot of people pair that with greige walls, which (if my web search turned up the right sorts of images for "mink") seems like it would work with your dining set. I think "fawn" walls would not work well with "mink," at least if my understanding of what you mean by those colors is on point. Fawn conjures up a warm color with orange undertones, and while that could look nice with a sage green living room set, I think it will fight the cooler tones of the kitchen and the proposed dining set. It sounds like the peppercorn floor is not installed yet, so I will throw this out there: Dark floors have a reputation for showing every speck of dust. The elements you've described would look just as nice with a less dramatically dark floor. Just something to think about. I haven't found it to be difficult to find black tables in styles other than country. What style are you interested in? More modern? More traditional? I'm sure we could help you find something. But if you stick with the peppercorn floors, black furnishings might be too much black. You could do white (tie in with kitchen cabinetry), chrome (tie in with your proposed chandelier) or something else. Congratulations on your new home! (I probably should have led with that...)

You could start with a professional colorist or start at a BM or SW store; I have met some paint folks who were genius with color. Our local Lowe's had a guy; really miss him. You can work with a color wheel, but I think that will confuse you by providing too much info. If you look through a paint store's color cards that feature colors you like and varying shades of them on the same card, you can take them home where the LED lighting will give you a better feel for how each works in situ. I suggest you each go to the store separately and select your paint color cards. Sit down and discuss, justifying your choices and see if you can narrow the cards down to 2-3 for each of you. Then you can order larger samples from www.samplize.com so you can see them on different walls in each room, in different lighting and weather conditions (sunrise, sunset, nighttime, mid-day, raining, sunny, gray) to nail down how they will work in your room, with your lighting. You can also acquire info on other colors, not on the cards, that are designed to work with them in a complimentary way. Now, part of selecting color (really the last step in most decor projects) is to consider your fabrics/textiles, which can't be changed as easily as paint can be. If you have your rugs, upholstery, art already it will be easier to do. If starting from scratch, you'll need to start mood boards for the furniture you plan to purchase. Do you have samples of the flooring you've chosen? That's part of your "board" too. It will be easier to make decisions on the individual rooms if the flooring is already installed. Placing the color cards with the board will help focus in on the best color for your place, and it may not be the one you have in mind right now. Be sure to take a cushion or matching pillow from the navy sofa with you as you shop for color and other fabrics/textiles. Big job but worth taking your time!

Thank you both! Jennifer, I just uploaded a floor plan for the area. It looks like the living room is 15x18. My husband and I were already considering putting a sectional along the left wall as you described, so I'm glad you see that as a good option, too! Beverly, I like your layout of the living area! Is there a reason for the rounded table vs. a rectangular table? I assumed a rectangular table would look better, so just curious. Thank you again for your suggestions!
