We removed a wall to make a kitchen bigger – to use as an eating area.
The kitchen has vinyl flooring, which we are now changing to porcelain tiles.
The way it is now, there is about 1/2 inch rise on the kitchen side.
How can we cover the space where the wall was, so that the floors will be mostly level?

My carpenter's solution was simply to bridge the gap with a threshold, with its underside cut differentially to compensate for the difference. Having a clearly raised area between the two, with slopes on either side, is less likely to be a trip hazard than a smaller but sharper transition.
