Different carpet in different rooms - it's not going to work is it?

[Mosaiccat]

I redid my stairs about 5 years ago and went for a greige carpet - it works in the space.

Now I'm looking to redo our snug room - it's quite dark and I think the greige carpet will just make the room feel sad. I'm looking for a cream/ sand colour instead. It's not going to work though is it? I have a hallway with wood flooring in-between but I'm worried it will make my home look 'bitty'.

Do I bite the bullet and redo the stairs too?

How about wood flooring in the snug and a nice rug.

I think you can since there is wooden floor between

We've got (and not changed)
*stripes on the stairs
*wood hall/kitchen
*beige in most rooms
*grey in 2 rooms (added in probably post beige carpet going down).

Go for what you want

Different carpet in different rooms is normal. Same carpet thought the house I think looks a bit institutional. Choesiveness comes from using the same colour palette throughout the house not picking exactly the same things for each room.

We have a blue, a grey, a lilac and a brown in our 4 bedrooms. The landing is beige. All one colour is just weird!

Fine by me! I have the 'right' flooring for the individual room.

I am also struggling with this!! We have grey throughout but I want hardwood in the living room and maybe the gym.

Sympathise!

I choose flooring to suit the space, so have different stairs/landing and bedroom carpets, and it’s fine. I regret continuing wooden flooring throughout the downstairs, tbh. I wish I’d carpeted the living room.

Ours are all different, I thought that only new builds had the same throughout or you would have to move loads of furniture to do the whole house and some might not need changing as often as others, it sounds like hard work to have the same.

Different flooring in different rooms here, all neutral though. Greige vinyl tiles in hall, silver grey in playroom, greige in stairs and landing and cream in lounge.

Horses for courses but I personally always match my carpet as I think it looks weird when it’s different. It looks broken up and like the owner has just bought cheap, end of roll off cuts and has done each room separately to save money.

All bedrooms/offices have the same, but hallways and living room are real, original wood. We're redoing the kitchen/diner, and that and the extension we are planning (2 storey) are going to have to be LVT and carpet due to budget!

I do.prefer to go for a cohesive look, though- we tend to add colour and texture through things that can be changed easily, such as soft furnishings.

yeah this

You’d have a meltdown in my house…… stairs are open plan and come into the living room…… 2 different carpets!!

Nah, different floors in different rooms is a home to me. Each room with its own colour scheme.

Same flooring throughout is a landlords house. No thought has gone into it. Bit like magnolia walls.

Different colours in different rooms seems fine to me.

I wouldn’t change a carpet that had lots of life still though, I’d pick a colour for the walls it could go with or put a rug over it. Carpets for me are expensive and need to live their life span.
