Wishing everyone a prosperous New Year! :sport-smiley-004:

Can't decide which carpet design and what size to get! My sofa is turquoise colour with grey piping, floor is beige marble tiles. Coffee table and TV console are made of teak wood so on the medium brown side.

Have shortlisted a few designs, will appreciate your comments!

An example of how turquoise will go with it. One thing I don't like about this is the size - 200cm x 200cm. Prefer it to be rectangular.

I vote 1! Where did you get these rugs from? I'm currently only finding nice (and affordable) ones from ikea or franc franc :(

Number 1 and 5 are from Ikea, the rest are from Taobao :)

I've never seen those (and I've been to ikea countless times since we started renovations)! Thanks for pointing them out! Shall look out for them next time. We've mostly been considering the ones at Muji and Franc Franc.
