In last month's blog, we considered bold carpets for the home. This month we look at the opposite: plain carpets in natural soft tones. Although bold carpets are fun and striking, they don't work in every home. Natural coloured carpets are much easier to work with. They settle into the background to let furniture, ornaments and art come through. However, with subtle changes in colour and texture, you can change the room's character with this kind of flooring.
