Is it possible that there are floorboards under the carpet that can be polished? This would be ideal. Otherwise, as much as I love my bedroom floorboards, I think you should stick with carpet. You’ll never match the hallway exactly so it will always look a bit odd.

At first I thought OMG what are you thinking with putting a grey kitchen in with all that beautiful wood. But I did a google search, and found the colours look good together. I would keep the floor a neutral colour and pattern. Not concrete look, not wood look, definitely not slate look. Refer to the photo below, a neutral floor with the grey kitchen, let the wood be the feature.

The skirting boards in pic are a meranti type colour as are the doors and architraves. Hubby does NOT want to change the colour or even consider white. Besides carpet what type of flooring could we lay that would still tie in well?

In an apartment you need to check before you add floating floors. Some buildings have regulations to assist with noise control. If you keep the tiles, do they have the same under tones as the paint you’re considering using?- a clash between a cool and warm white will always look odd.
