Kousa or Emperor maple?

Hi there
I’m hoping you guys can help with making this decision here for the tree immediately in front of the red brick home .
I was initially thinking about Venus Kousa but Now debating on Emperor maple. There are no other red trees in the front . My front yard theme is mostly white and blue flowers .
Near the post box I will have seven son tree which has red caps at the end of fall.
In Ohio area Venus Kousa grows 12’ to 15’. It has gorgeous white blooms in May/June. But we worry about wide span of the canopy and the amount of pruning needed. And when it’s not blooming, that it may be a meh look.
With the maple, I am hesitant that it may be too much of red , given the red brick home. Thoughts? I’m buying the tree tomorrow , as the landscapers are going to be installing it within a day!
Thank you in advance
