Patterned Bedroom Carpet
Various
Patterned carpets are a deceptively versatile design choice for the home, providing a cosy and plush feeling underfoot, introducing new colour combinations, and adding a layer of visual interest with stripes, tartan, botanical motifs and geometric designs to name just a few. And whilst wooden flooring isn't going anywhere fast, patterned carpets are certainly a more effective way to express creativity and imagination.
Patterned carpets require a bit more design treatment than a classic neutral, to ensure the colour palette in the rest of your room is complementary. Here, your entire room can be styled from the floor up, picking up tones in your carpet and working them into your broader design scheme.
We've collected 12 brilliant examples to inspire your next home update, and included some clever design tips to make the most of your patterned carpet.
Top tips on choosing your patterned carpet
• If you're after a carpet for a high-traffic area, a tight-loop is your most practical choice - the denser the fibre, the more durable it is. A luxurious deep pile would be more suited to a bedroom or in a reading nook.
• Gather samples of the other fabrics in your room, along with wallpaper, paint colours and pictures of furniture to make sure they will all work together with your patterned carpet.
• Include the cost of underlay and installation. Underlay should usually be replaced when you buy a new carpet, and is vitally important as it will help retain heat, and extend the lifespan of your carpet.
1 Patterned carpet ideas: Mixing warm and cool colours
Make a feature of your patterned carpet by choosing a bold mix of warm colours, and limiting the colour palette in the rest of your room to cooler shades. The deep green here is the perfect complement to the warmer reds and oranges in this Carpetright striped carpet.

2 Patterned carpet ideas: Monochrome
It's common to mix lighter walls with a dark carpet and vice versa to establish a nice contrast, but consider pairing similar colours for a more dramatic look. This deep blue/green patterned carpet creates a romantic and moody room scheme - lifted slightly with the white geo accents - and can similarly be achieved with deep burgundy, purples and greys.

3 Patterned carpet ideas: Focus on the stairs
Introduce pattern in a subtle way with a stair runner. This elegant striped wool carpet from Carpetright will draw the eye upwards, elongating your stairs and giving the impression of higher ceilings. Make sure to pick a hardwearing carpet for high traffic areas such as the stairs and hallway.

4 Patterned carpet ideas: Widen a narrow room
Patterned carpets are a very efficient way to alter perspectives in your home, adding the allusion of extra depth or space. Here, a horizontal stripe is used to widen a narrow room, and create a visual tunnel towards some lovely garden views.

6 Patterned carpet ideas: Be brave
Pristine white walls and light wooden floors are the perfect base for brave design choices. Here, Margo Selby's signature geometric pattern in a colourful mixture of burgundy, cream and green becomes a real feature - doubly so by matching a stair carpet with a runner.

7 Patterned carpet ideas: Modern farmhouse
An abundance of print and pattern is a quintessential feature of country homes. Our Country Living Taylor Loop carpet at Carpetright uses natural forest greens and browns for a classic country colour palette, and is hardy enough for high traffic areas such as a hallway and even a kitchen.

8 Patterned carpet ideas: Animal inspiration
Another bold choice for fearless decorators. Animal print doesn't have to be overly dramatic or garish if you ensure the rest of your room moody and romantic. Keep your carpet colour palette subtle - a beige or grey, like this stylised zebra print carpet at Carpetright - and complement with a deep burgundy, inky blue, or forest green.

10 Patterned carpet ideas: Botanicals
Another classic country option - botanical motifs make for a playful, nature-inspired take on patterned carpets. If the design is very dense, make sure your base colour is light and neutral to prevent it overwhelming a room.

11 Patterned carpet ideas: Nautical pinstripes
This pinstriped carpet would be at home in a beach house, paired as it is here with whitewashed wall cladding, and a light and airy colour palette. If you have hints of yellow in your patterned carpet, grab your colour wheel to make sure your surroundings will complement - neutrals, a burnt orange, or cooler tones such as a blue or green are safe choices.

12 Patterned carpet ideas
Tartan carpets are a classic design feature that can add a touch of country estate to your home. Tartan is a great way to establish your colour palette, typically incorporating three complementary shades - like the cream, duck egg blue and soft red in our Country Living Sylvan Axminster carpet pictured here.
