More Carpet pics. Only my only 2 favorite options are shown in the photos. As you can see different spaces = different shades visible. I should add that our staircase and upper floor will be carpeted. Ground floor is mostly tile - only a kids/multi-purpose room and bedroom will be carpeted. These rooms sit next to tiled spaces.

I like the grey against the reddish floorboards. With pets and teenagers, I wonder if darker would be better? I installed pale carpet pre-parenthood... worse mistake... will be going a darker shade next time!

Ideally , it would be good to see photos , to see what other colours you have , such as furniture , art , etc . Logically though , all things being equal , a mid to dark blue should suit , although it is then a bit harder to tie anything else in with -- particularly the sunny colours ( r , o , y ) , greens or browns and the like . So the other option is a charcoal , which isn't warm in itself , but you can add colour easily so the house , not just the floor , has a warm look , and that would be the direction I'd probably take .

Can't decide on carpet colour for our master bedroom. Bed is medium coloured timber. Walls are white with high raked ceiling. Room is 4.1m x 3.6m........ Dark or light? Does carpet in master need to match the other bedrooms?
