Need help with picking furniture (pics)

Ok, so I am moving into a new apartment and I need help with picking colors. The kitchen, and living room are one big room. The walls are BM Quiet Moments which is a sage green. The floors are a medium oak color, not to light not to dark. The kitchen cabinets are a medium cherry color with a light granite(white, tan, gray color). The ceilings and moldings are white.

Ok, so here are pictures of what furniture I picked out. What I am really unsure of, is what color sofa and kitchen set to get. I really like bought the white and black set, but I am wondering what color would go best. Or maybe I should just get a all wood set. Also, what color sofa do you like better. If you have any other color suggestions, let me know. I haven't bought anything yet.TIA

Bottom pic is the coffe table I picked out, it is cherry. The cabinets are lighter then the coffe table. They are more the color of the tops of the tables.

Here are a pic of the two sofa colors. The first one is Expresso, and the second is Mocha. Also, it is a basement apartment. It is not too dark though, since we have alot of track lighting.

Here are two more choices. DH and I really like these two sets, but they are the counter height sets. I was unsure if that would look okay in a basement apartment. The ceilings are about 9 Ft tall.

I think I like the white table set best and the darker green couch. I think a dark couch would look good if everything else in the room is light.

My DH's aunt has the first table you posted in black. I LOVE that one! I like dark.

Re: Need help with picking furniture (pics)

first question... do you have pets and do you let them on the couches?

If so, you might want to go with the lighter couch.

No, but we do plan on getting a cat. I never thought about the darker sofa showing all the cat hair. Good point!
