How do I pick an accent wall?

Kitchen, dining and living room is all basically one long room. How can I paint the walls to separate the rooms?

You could transition with shades of the same paint. Pick them off the same card.
Define areas by decor.
You can put a screen or hang something to separate spaces.
I did mine in the same color but had accent walls that coordinated.
Starting with the kitchen, I'd paint above the cabinets and backsplash(or use tile, there). I would probably try to do an accent walls on as much surface area as possible. You can use chalk lines (gives a straight line to tape off) to set up where one room borders another. Artwork and decor can help to differentiate between the rooms. I hope that helps.
Open concept floor plans are great but tricky when painting and/or decorating. I used different materials to differentiate each area. For example, tile in the kitchen, paint in the lv.rm. wallpaper in dining area, etc., all in coordinating colors of course. And maybe use every door or window available as stopping points. Get creative and have fun! I'm sure it will be beautiful!
