You might offer to refurbish the floors, but if your landlord won't go for that, check out the chartreuse post from yesterday. I happen to like emerald green (although I wouldn't choose wall-to-wall emerald), and think emerald and chartreuse would go very nicely together.

You could use a very deep charcoal or greyish teal as other colors. Using an accent like chartreuse in the same color family will keep the carpet itself from being the focal point, it is dark enough to function almost as a neutral.
