rug color for medium gray sofas?

5 years ago

I just received three sofas that I really like, but they are significantly lighter than I expected. My floors are dark wood and my walls are very neutral greige (Balboa Mist). The room gets a ton of light and I want to keep the orange accent color. Any ideas on what type of rug to get? It will need to be bound carpet due to the size. I am torn between a white color with a little touch of color, or going with a deeper color like navy. Any other suggestions welcome as well!

TIA
