To help you figure out what color palettes will best suit your personality, Mohawk Flooring (http://www.mohawkflooring.com) provides the following quiz:

Mostly A's: Idealist. Those out to save the world will feel at home with Earth-inspired colors, such as cocoa, cinnamon, stone and taupe. In addition to choosing a natural color palette, look for products that conform to your ideals, such as green-certified carpeting made from recycled materials. For example, Mohawk SmartStrand Featuring DuPont Sorona is 37 percent bio-based.

Mostly B's: Eclectic. You love authentic and vintage finds and enjoy layering colors and patterns. Try shades like rose, olive, turquoise and seafoam.

Mostly C's: Homebody. You're all about warmth and comfort, and you like to keep things cozy and intimate. Vary between neutral colors and warm shades.

Mostly D's: Mysterious Stranger. You appreciate romance and intrigue. Evoke an Old World sense of fantasy with deep, rich shades of navy, purple, red and teal. Exotic hardwood floors with deep, rich hues add to the veiled allure.
