FIXED PIC: Which color carpet do you think will look nice with my furniture?
i am moving to a co-op and have to carpet the whole place my couch is a light brown, microfiber and i have 2 matching ottomans that are the same color. the base of the couch and the ottomans are a dark brown. the walls in the living room and dining room will be painted a dark beige/tannish, still working on that, lol. i don't want the carpet to match exactly cuz it will "blend in " too much. i am leaning towards the lightest color.
can i please have your opinions?
thanks

I like all of them, I'd be worried about the lighest color showing too much wear or marks. I like the one all the way on the right too.

As far as your choices, I do like the lighter sample with your couch. However the room does sound quite monotone.
In my co-op, that has since been sold, I put in a really nice neutral green and it looked great and got a lot of compliments. Went with everything... Image Attachment(s):

I agree. It's hard to tell from this picture, but I like the right one the best. We have light carpet in our den, bedrooms & playroom and it shows everything. It was here when we bought the house, but when we replace it, I would like to go darker.

Re: FIXED PIC: Which color carpet do you think will look nice with my furniture?
we have the same colors that you are mentioning.. we liked the beige carpets too but decided it will be too much with wear and tear.. stains..etc..
so we decided to get Navy Blue carpets and they look great! so glad we did it!

All practicality aside, I think the light looks better with the color of your couch

Of the ones you have there, I'd say the one on the right.
Our co-op (we're selling) has light beige walls and our couches were almost the same color as yours - we had a light grey carpet, and it looked great!

I'd either go with the one on the right or the lightest one.
Also, have you thought about putting a different color on the walls? Maybe a slate blue or gray-ish green to get away from all the tan (tan couch, carpet, etc.)?

The one all the way to the right, but I have to be honest maybe consider painting the walls. The room sounds VERY monotone and needs something else besides brown from wall to ceiling to furniture

I think you should be looking for a lot more of a contrast.

What about a deep red? Then you can do some red throw pillows or red curtains? I like beige and red together. Beige couches and beige carpet is way too monotone IMO.
