Lean into moody or brighten it up? Before and after painting 1916 Craftsman dining room

The dark blue is the after. I love how the color looks with both the built in and laminate floor. The trim and doors were already painted in this room so I painted those as well. Not seen- double glass pane pocket doors 🥰 Planning on doing wallpaper for the top of the walls, a rug, and brass/crystal chandelier (eventually) Curtains may or may not be staying depending on what I decide to do with the rest of the room. I have hated most of the lighter rugs I’ve seen and don’t like the vibe when they look distressed. I was thinking an embossed low contrast wallpaper but can’t decide between going bright or dark. I also like small floral patterns but don’t want to make the room too busy with everything that is already going on in this space.

Any advice or opinions are appreciated. Thank you!
