Grey walls and black carpet? Madness?

11 years ago
Having problems choosing between cream or black carpet (samples in photo as well as old carpet underneath). Walls will be warm grey (Dulux Potters Clay 1) contrasted with crisp white ceiling and woodwork. Old worn skirting as pictured will be replaced by 4-5" white skirting. I instinctively prefer the black carpet which looks more sophisticated and less utilitarian but worry the room will look gloomy afterwards. But then again I know I can use clever lighting and bright details to counteract that. But then again the cream carpet might make the room look more airy and spacious..... Thoughts?
