Picture?

This is the china cabinet in the alcove in the kitchen.

Show the entire kitchen, not just that alcove, otherwise we cannot tell if it goes or not.

Your living room questions are impossible to answer since you have not provided photos of the space.

Need pictures of all of the spaces you are talking about.

This is the buffet on the same side of the wall as the china cabinet but in the living room.

This wall could be cut out to have an alcove ro fit the china cabinet.

This is the view in the kitchen.

China cabinet and buffet on same wall. Behind me is the morning room/dining room where the table is.

Those are the two windows I could make into a bay window to fit the buffet.

I think the china cabinet makes perfect use of an awkwardly-sized alcove.

Regarding the china cabinet - I would remove the items that are sitting on top of it - they should not be there. I would also see if I could de-clutter some of the items inside the china cabinet. The cabinet should showcase your prettiest things, but the way it is now, you cannot make out individual pieces. Do you need all of them in there, and do you need all of them at all? Perhaps there are some items that can be given to someone else or donated to make the china cabinet more able to show off your favorite pieces.

Sorry it is messy, I tried to do a panoramic picture to show the downstairs.

I guess the real question is whether you need more storage space for kitchen stuff v dishes and glasses. I think the china cabinet looks fine but I would move it if it's keeping your kitchen from functioning the way you would like it to.

I guess I technically don't, but thought it was odd that all 3 of my dining pieces were split up and that I just had a table and chairs in the dining area. Not sure if that is okay or odd?

I think it's fine. It's not SUPER formal but it's comfy formal which is a good place to be.

Is your main issue that you think the dining area needs an accessory piece of furniture? If you do this (and can make the space!), I'd put in the buffet instead of the china cabinet.

But it's fine!

Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking Luke I am supposed to have another piece of furniture in there just because?

I also have this track lighting over my island because running can lights would've been a headache. I was thinking off taking the track lighting down and just installing another one of those flat lights that you see to the left in the ceiling. So then I would have that light and one to the right to match. Or is the track lighting better over the island?

I can't tell for sure but in the photo your buffet looks like it's too big for the dining room but I agree it needs something. How about a console table?

I think It is too big for the dining room. It is 22" wide. If I put it in there, it would be 2 feet between the table and the cabinet. I have this console table in my hallway that I thought would match, but it just looked too small for the scale of the table?

I agree. Too small.

It's pretty nice as it is. The reason for a buffet in there is that you're supposed to serve from them (nobody does, of course). A shallow but wide table on the wall might be doable if you feel the need for more furniture.

Or, put wainscoting and a chair rail in the dining room to make it feel more full? (Project for the next lockdown. :P)

I do not have a dining room. This is our main eating area and I do have an island. I believe it is 9 feet long.

China cabinets and ”sets” are very old fashioned. And splitting up the set across 3 rooms doesn’t make sense. The whole set seems incongruous with the kitchen (blond wood & track lighting) and the open layout of your home. In my opinion, the dining room furniture is a misfit for the house.
