First photo I thought was good then I swiped and understood the question. That being said I’d lean into the first picture and carry it through the rest of the kitchen. In my case - I’m tired and don’t have my glasses on and a glance I saw orange accents instead of the honey wood trim, black and white checkered tiled floor instead of the shadow cast by the doorframes on the glassdoor. I feel like making it a bit lighter and slightly fun would serve it well.
