We also chose to have the wood run from the entry right into the kitchen. This meant removing a corner of carpeting and placing wood there instead. Our PM and I agreed upon a good angle for this but the wood floor installers forgot to do it. SO, they had to come back and fix it. I haven't seen it yet so I'm hoping it looks good and is what I had envisioned.
This is the marked corner where the wood is going in place of carpet
