Herringbone floors

Sometimes when looking at finished room I so appreciate a patterned floor.  Now of course this can be easily accomplished by purchasing a rug.  However, I have to say a two tone geometric floor with an energetic pattern sometimes is just the verve the room is needing.  It could be installed or a carpet, but check out these rooms with herringbone floors- very classic but a little zingy and only two colors to pop everything else in the space.  These first ones are carpets- amazing how they work with more traditional and less traditional spaces alike.
