Decisions...Decisions...

A lot has been going on around my lil neck of the woods. Slowly but surely there has been some construction going on to finish the new addition, a huge family room that will have a new laundry room, and a mother in law suite.
Entire Addition

Future family room 500sq ft
 As all of you would be doing, I have been dreaming of how I will decorate this new space... Exciting! Now you know I have 2 boys, 3 if you count my hubby...so I want a space that will work for all of us. Something Manly yet pretty, warm and cozy, light and airy! Here is what I have seen and fallen in love with.


I know though for the couches they will have to be either slipcovered for easy washing, or a slightly darker color...any suggestions on what works for you and your kiddos...with the pretty furniture? I really don't want to wait until my little one is the age 10 to get new sofas :) man this is fun!
Have any of you seen the prices for these antler chandeliers/ WOAH! so on ebay I have seen people selling lots of loose antlers...hmmm I might just try my hand at making my own...

My main dilema...for the door leading into the laundry room?
                                                                    Pocket Door?
                                                                             
                                                                     or Barn Door?

I love the barn door...but just curious if it will be too much mixed with the design elements from the inspiration picture above?
