Maybe add some dimension in this way, while keeping lower, more comfortable seating ???

Rounded dimension will be good.

See about possibility of laying floor boards on the diagonal, like this in at least a section of the flooring, since there will be so much. Maybe just on the kitchen section or just on the foyer area might be better, wrapping around the stairway opening. ?

Ceiling millwork to break up the large open ceiling area.

Mix of counter materials but keep the seat area at counter height for stools. To be different height than the table and chairs, but not bar height. Good mix of dimension and materials for interest.

The texture under the bar is pretty, and the arch shape is similar to the plan sketched out with the longer end, along the side wall of the foyer area. Long wall of cabinets/appliances behind

This could possibly be your kitchen, the way the outer island is, with the smaller center island, and a long wall of cabinets.

The look of the wood flooring all over. Also another idea is to open up the stair walls to railings of some kind, like this maybe.??? Ceiling detail also is great for such an open space.

I like this painted finish on cabinets for perimeter too.
