For more color you could choose the lightest shade of a color you like.
The dark wood floors of this modestly sized but comfortable living room are covered by a natural fiber area rug that lends a nautical feel to the blue and white color pallet.
As mentioned before you can choose a stark cool white or a warmer off white or even ivory or cream.
