2. Popular Colors

The most popular carpet color is beige although it has an undeserved reputation for looking dull and being a little too safe. However, the great thing about beige is that it compliments most other colors. No matter what color the walls in a room are, beige will almost certainly blend in well.

3. Earthy Tones

A modern carpet trend is the use of earthy tones. Greens, light blues and stone colors all help to create a calm, serene atmosphere. In today’s modern home, the increasingly popular oriental and earthy tones can be essential. Earthy tones typically look best in either the bathroom or the living room. However, they will show up stains and dirt easily so avoid placing them in high traffic areas that see large levels of child or pet activity.
