Flooring: wood in hall, stripe carpet on stairs, and then wood or carpet on landing?

We think we’ve decided on amtico wood effect in the hall, a crucial trading stripe carpet on the stairs, a Berber twist in all the bedrooms, but don’t know what to do about the landing.

We had hoped that we could have the stripe on the landing. We can, but as we have two turns on the stairs, we would have to either have the carpet going ‘the wrong way’ on the landing, or have the carpet on the landing going ‘the right way’ but that means that you would go up the stairs with the stripe going ahead of you, and then as you reach the top it would go horizontally across the landing, and maybe would look a bit odd.

So - should we:

  1. Have the stripe going the wrong way on the landing; or
  2. Have the stripe going the right way on the landing, but this is not the conventional way you would see a stripe carpet; or
  3. Put the same carpet on the landing as we are having in the bedrooms; or
  4. Put the same amtico on the landing as we are having in the hall.

House is Edwardian, original staircase. Hall is large and square-ish. Staircase is open, lots of white painted spindles, landing quite open too at the top.
