Default Transition from 2 1/4 wood flooring to 3 inch

I have 3 inch floorin gin a dinning orom and carpet in the adjoining

matches the three inch. Is there a good was to transition from one
size to another to make the size difference less apparant? The rooms
are separated by a wide "doorway" without the door.


Since it "nearly matches", that means it doesn't match exactly, so
even if they were the same width you'd see a difference if you put
them right next to each other..

How about installing a threshold in the doorway that doesn't match
either flooring?

I couldn't get the full size image to load, but go to Google Images
and enter this search term:

threshold between rooms

Look at the bottom pictures in the second and forth columns for ideas.
