My twopennorth: gold is a difficult colour for a very textured thing like a a carpet. It would probably feel mustardy or ochrey instead. Even though that red isn't a very saturated red, I reckon it would feel like too many strong colours in one room. I'd go for something to tone with the beige - beige, oatmeal, or similar - because it will make the room feel a lot bigger and lighter, and won't draw the eye in the way that a yellow would. I know beige is dull, but red is a strong statement for a room already, so better to have one strong statement than two statements shouting over each other.
