Because the style is quite modern eclectic, my thought was that a muted cow hide rug could work If you feel a bit more daring - these muted colours would echo the traditional carpet or failing that go for a high sheen textural rug that doesn't compete with the monochrome elegance

What did you end up choosing Sanyukta? Would be interested in seeing what you chose to go with the greeny-white.

Japanese!! Yes; now you've said that I can't believe that hadn't dawned on me before, but it's probably why I chose it in the first place. I do have a love of Japanese styling and there's quite a bit of it in other rooms of the house. The bedhead is a neutral linen so I think I could get away with some subtle Japanese styling around it. I like the idea of paper lampshades and Japanese style side tables. Thank you.
