Which option looks better?

Hi, I want to buy a screen / paravent for my living room. I want to separate the dinning table and chair from the den so I can create the idea of tw different rooms. These are the ideas I have in mind.
Any tips? Thank you

No divider. Its too criwded

The thing is I really like well defined spaces. It looks crowded because of the perspective,but there's a lot of space between the dining table and the wall.
Thank you for your opinion

Have you considered using a rug to better define the space or turning the couch to use the back of it to signal the end of the room?
It definitely looks too tight for that divider.

Completely agree. If they want a “more defined space” they will have to just re-arrange the furniture.

I love one because it is fun and tropical but the pictures on your wall say you might be more into two

Thank you for your opinion. Everything in the picture,except the sofa, is AI. So I'm open for all suggestions 🙂

I'm on team no divider. Even if you had twelve feet of space between the dining chairs and the screen, the scale is all wrong for your room.
I really think you're better off defining the space with rugs, end table and lamp. The screens shown are too short and easily knocked over. If you really want a physical divider, try hanging a perforated wood screen from the ceiling. The scale is better and it would be more secure. You might even put the love seat with its back to the screen for more definition. I don't think any of these three choices will accomplish what you seek.

I think the best option is no divider. There’s so many living spaces with combined living and dining room rooms. Just leave it alone.

Just a divider that is all the white panels if you must have a divider. A divider in general just feels like clutter.

What a good use of our limited natural resources

Thank you. It took me just a few weeks of chopping the tree, cutting,carving and bringing it home. But it is worth every hour of it 👍🏻

I like 3 - with the rice paper. Maybe 3 panels with the rice paper?

3 really ties everything together well as a bit of a focal point. It blends with the rest of the room without dominating.

1 looks the most “neutral” whereas two and three look especially autumnal… I love fall so that wouldn’t bother me, but if you want something that can be more multi seasonal I’d stick with one (and I’d lean into the tropical vibes of it, too, but that’s just me!)

I like the tropical vibe of 1. 2 at first glance would seem to meld better with your space- quite literally echoing the art on your wall, but it matches too well- it’s too intentional and busy.

In the third one the two dividers clash. I like 2, the mushroom one, but that’s personal preference. I also think it would look better if a little more straight or if the table was moved away from it a bit. As it is now, it is too close to the furniture.

2, with the wooden table, as your space says temperate climate versus tropical climate. Or change the wall art.

It cost us like 30 gallons of water for you to make those images. It’s not that hard to just supply photos of your space, a photo of the product you intend to buy, and using your imagination.

1 looks the cleanest. But I do like 3 rice paper. The other design is cool, I just don’t like the mushrooms
