I’m buying a house and I have two rooms that could each work as either a dining room or living room, and I’m stuck.

Here’s the situation:
• Room A (front) smaller, less natural light, vaulted ceilings
• Room B (back) bigger, more windows, better light
• Kitchen opens directly to Room A
My instinct says: living room in Room A (up front, welcoming for guests) and dining in Room B (the bigger, brighter room. I like the idea of walking into a living room but

The problem: that puts the kitchen opening into the living room, when functionally it makes way more sense for the kitchen to open into the dining room.

Note; I am buying this house and moving in with almost no furniture. And I know very little about design choices or what’ll look/feel mo better.e
