Help, I really don't like my new carpet!

Now I appreciate that this is a first-world problem, but our new living room carpet was installed yesterday and I really don't like it. The sample looked like it would go with the F&B Drop Cloth colour on the units and ceiling, but in reality it clashes. It's too light for the room and ruins the cosy cocooning effect we wanted from the Inchyra Blue colour on the walls. Plus, it seems to have an insipid blue tinge to it.

Does anyone with good interior design knowledge know if there anything I can do? Would a rug of a particular colour help tie it all in? Should I move it to a different room and start again? Ahh!

For reference, we ideally wanted wooden floors, but couldn't afford to rip up the skirting and get the whole room redecorated in the process (we decorated the room before thinking about the floor....).

Any advice greatly appreciated!

I actually really like the carpet, it brings light into the room. Definitely if you want a cosier look a rug would help enormously.

I think you’ll grow to like the carpet, it’s neutral and you’ll be able to change the room colour if you want with that shade.

I think it looks classy, but I’m not a fan of cosy interiors.
