I posted this on D&R but thought I would ask here since it's slow.
We are going to be replacing our carpet with laminate. I'm PIP of
the colors of our current sofas, curtains and current wall color(the
darker brown). These elements are staying in the room . I can't decide
between the two floor colors. I prefer the darker wood but am scared
that it is too much darkness. Which floor color would be best? We will
be painting the living room and as of write now we're going with that
light brown. Any other suggestions? We are not afraid of color and will
also have to pick out a rug that I hope will bring color to the living
room. Which floors and what color for the wall?
Re: XP: Help me pick our floor color.
i'd go with the darker wood but I'd repaint for sure
i love the darker wood but i think it would be too dark with the dark wood floors, dark walls, dark curtains and a dark couch.
the lighter paint color looks peachy... is it actually peachy??
I have dark wood floors, and love the look of them in general.
But, with your dark furniture, I would go with the lighter wood. I think otherwise, your furniture would blend in too much. Does that makes sense?

The dark wall is a wall that runs from the front door through to the kitchen and 2nd living room in the back of the house. The lighter color is not peachy. It's just the closest I could find online in the five minutes I took to put the picture together. The color I am thinking about we used in DS nursury and is just a light tan. I'll see if I can post a pic from my MySpace account... if I can even remember my login.
This, particularly the part about the rug... but I don't think you need to go lighter on the wall color. I think it'll look lighter in comparison to the darker floors.
Be bought our house with floors that look like the lighter color in your picture but if we had gotten to choose we would have gone darker.
