I have tan beige sage green grey striped (small striped) sofa. My walls are ivory apart one which is which is a lovely shade of green with ivory which matches well with sofa. What colour of carpet would match with this. Would a chocolate brown be a good match.

Hello Dub M, Well it also depends on what else colour wise you're choosing for your scheme.. Whether you want bold and dramatic or whether you want something lighter in feel... Using them sparingly with a lot of plain in between or perhaps as boarders can then lend themselves to accent rather than statement... All depends on what you want from them as they're versatile! For pale schemes.. Think of colours such as creams, wheat and pale sun hued creams with hints of yellow.. Light and earthy tones on the cream, wheat, canvas, hessian colours perhaps beige and pale mustards, or pale golden creams and burnt siena with hints of brown,ochres .. For bold consider dark almost purple blues and hints of mauve.. Also Charcoal and greys with black and brown hues... For a warm but dramatic look.. The colours are chalky and have depth... Include wood work and again wall covering is versatile in that it could be half height or whole height.. Put tiles and colours together to see what you like.. Paint onto squares of paper no less than A4 and place them where you might want to use them.. Look throughout the day to see how they react and interact with their space and the changing light.. From one colour you can begin to mix it to blend and become another.. In this way you can see colours interact with each other. Use versions of them by working with lighter and or darker varieties of the chosen colour.. Here's a doodle to show the colours blue and others I'm suggesting so you can see the blue is still quite dominant. I rather like blue and elements of yellows, old golds and creams.. Look at the tiles themselves too for inspiration... : ))

Glad you like it. Have to say that the colours I picked for the moodboard might be totally off in real life. Always difficult to judge colours online. But, just in case it does work in real life too, I used Belgravia Twist carpet, colour Seascape. Does your room get a lot of light? Which way is it facing? Here's another version, light carpet and darker walls. Would work too. Depends on what you like really. The carpet might be a bit too beige really, but just to show you the light floor/dark walls version.

Thanks Sonia - that does look a lovely colour and might make a small room less claustrophobic! Thanks also Minnie for identifying that colour - the room looks lovely in it which is encouraging maybe a tiny bit greenish the shade?

Well, I have Cromarty in my living room (NE facing) and Oval Room Blue in the kitchen (SW facing so very sunny). I’ve teamed Cromarty with a red Persian rug and gold sofas and I really love it. It sits wonderfully with reds and terracotta (your rug!). The Oval Room is bolder and visitors always praise it so it must be nice 😊. I’m not mad on mixing wall colours in one room as it can be so hard to get right. I do love your gold walls in your previous home though.
