Kitchen /Family Room More light More bright & a Little Orange

How to get more light & Organized seating and storage for this Family of 4 and dogs. ( See before shot below) We managed to get a custom storage bench made that wrapped around the angled wall. The client and I collaborated on the choice of fabrics and color theme. She had a lot of inherited accessories and artwork with an Asian theme and some just sentimental pieces. We had these Beautiful Fighting Fish Embroidered on the Lumbar pillows. Added some Coral paint to the frame around the painting.
