Solutions for an ugly living room floor?

Question

We have a pale peach colored floor in our living room and we plan to decorate the entire room in a modern way -- lots of light gray, black and white. Clearly, we need to take away the impact of the floor. We cannot re-tile nor paint over it.

I'm thinking of putting an area rug to cover a big part of the floor. Any suggestions on the color / pattern of the rug OR any other solutions?

Thanks!

I would just stick with the colors you are decorating in. I went to JCPenney.com and added a few rugs I thought you might like. For a living room, I would choose something elegant or traditional like the rugs that follow.
