Im building a dedicated theater and am looking for some contemporary/cool carpet. My seats and granite counter tops are red and black so Id like to match that but I want something other than pure black. Any ideas? Thanks so much.

Technically not pure black... but this is what I used:

I went with A commercial carpet from Brintons fine carpet The Highmont Collection 80% wool 20% Nylon, the only problem is that it is very expensive around $280au A loom mt but the loom width is only 2mt wide but I had A good carpet layer who made the join nearly invisable as you can see in my picture... It is what the Cinema's in Australia use and the patterns they offer are perfict for Home theaters....
Please ignore my Center speakers :eek: My real Center speaker was out of action at the time :D....

Masland has some dark carpets with some patterns. Sandman's theater has pics of one style and color (black with a beige accent which he dyed red). I actually have the same pattern in a grey.

Thanks so much everyone--those are all great ideas.

this is what we used
