Surely, each of these colors has its own excellence. Further information about all those will be provided for you in the following.

Dark Gray – Compatibility and Restful Atmosphere

As told earlier, each carpet flooring color mentioned previously is suggested with reason.

Dark gray, for example, is basically said to be the most attractive color carpet to be paired with gray walls because basically when it comes to the connection between walls and flooring in bedroom area gray and gray can create the harmony needed without any problem.

In other words, this carpet color has compatibility value when being paired with gray bedroom walls.

First, you can see this picture of the contemporary bedroom. There are several possible reasons why this color is chosen for the carpet flooring of the room.

The first is the room already has light gray walls, white ceiling, and enough natural light from the window.

Choosing bright-colored carpet is not the best decision here since it will add another source of brightness in the room, which can possibly reduce the comfort of resting in there.

The second is the room has dark-colored furniture and decoration options, which are dominated by black color.

Choosing dark gray carpet instead of any other brighter-colored carpet is better for meeting the bright color of the room’s walls and ceiling and the dark color of the furniture.

In other words, the carpet color avoids the room from being unbalanced quite smoothly.

This one is not the same as the previous example. If in the previous example the gray wall color that is paired with dark gray carpet flooring is light and warm, this one is dark.

Unlike light grey color that can make any bedroom to look airy, brighter, and even more spacious, dark gray color tend to do things on the contrary.

This is the reason why this tone, especially when the gray on the gray idea is used, is not really suitable to apply in the small bedroom since it will only make the room feel cramped.

That is why spacious bedroom or the one with high walls as seen in the example is more suitable for the idea.

If you need another example of bedroom design that has light gray walls and dark gray carpet, the picture above can be said to be a quite good one to get inspired by. Besides, it is also a proof that light grey walls can be paired not only with light-colored carpet.

The use of dark grey carpet flooring in this picture is as a matter of fact successful in creating a nice-looking transitional bedroom design, which actually also has a quite strong modern impression because of the color choices in there.

The trick you can follow from this picture in relation to how you can choose the right dark gray color for a bedroom with the light gray wall is by choosing also some other elements with the very similar or even exactly the same dark gray tone.

In this picture, those elements are the backless sofa and window shades.

By doing so, you do not need to worry about losing the balance of the overall bedroom design.

Light Gray – Compatibility and Brighter Look

Just like dark gray carpet flooring, light gray carpet flooring color is also known to have the same compatibility excellence.

Clearly, the reason is none other but the fact that gray is always being a compatible color to pair with gray.

Although the previous excellence is the same, of course, this choice of carpet flooring color has something different that will make you choose it more than the dark gray one. It is none other but the ability to create a brighter look.

Let’s see some examples of bedroom designs in the following.

The first example for light gray carpet and gray walls combination can be seen in the picture above.

The combination of light gray color and white color like this can create the dreamy look in the room. That is also the reason why choosing a darker color for the carpet flooring is not recommended. Doing so will only ruin the dreamy atmosphere that is simply perfect for the bedroom area.

If you look carefully, both of the light gray walls and light gray carpet flooring that is used specifically can be said to have greige color, which is the combination of gray and beige. In other words, both wall and carpet colors here are included in the category of warm gray color.

This is, as a matter of fact, another good thing can be found in this bedroom design. Warm gray color is simply suitable for enhancing comfort and coziness in bedroom space.

The next example can be seen from this picture of contemporary bedroom design in which gray on the gray idea is applied to the wall and flooring.

The impact resulted from the use of both light gray walls and carpet floor here is not only about how the room looks brighter. It is also that the room feels airier.

It is supported even better by the fact that there is no door used to separate the bedroom with the room next to it and the use of lots of windows to let more natural light and air in.

Beige – Harmonious and Warm Atmosphere

Beige is also considered to be the best color for the carpet to be paired with gray walls.

The reason is that this shade of brown is quite neutral so it will not be hard for it to match gray color of the walls.

However, it does not mean you can replace beige with any other neutral color since it means you may lose the harmonious and warm atmosphere you can see in the bedroom area, which is, as a matter of fact, another factor that can guarantee good, peaceful, and relaxing resting.

Please take a look at the picture below as the first example of the gray wall and beige carpet flooring combo.

If you worry that once you pick beige carpet flooring it will not match the gray walls in your bedroom, the design tricks found in this picture can be the right decision to follow.

The first trick is actually by choosing multi-tone carpet flooring with beige and gray combination. Of course, the gray color should be similar to the gray color of the walls to avoid any incompatibility.

For instance, you can see the two different pictures above. In both pictures, beige carpet flooring is used

However, in the first picture, the beige carpet is paired with light gray walls while in the second picture the carpet is paired with dark gray walls. Of course, the look resulted from each idea is different.

The use of beige carpet in the first picture is meant to create balance in the color scheme chosen for the bedroom area. This is proven by the fact that the carpet is not the only light brown detail can be found in the room. There are bed, pillows, and lampshades that also belong to the category of light brown color.

On the other hand, the use of beige carpet flooring shows something different. It is not meant for balancing. It is meant to make the dark gray walls and everything in it to be more prominent. It is reasonable then if the painting and even the vintage dresser in this room look way more visible than the beige carpet flooring.
