ABSTRACT:
A decorative covering in the form of a carpet (1) has threaded through it a number of fibre optic cables (2) the ends of each extend to the same height as the carpet pile (4). The individual cables (2) are gathered into bundles (5) which extend to a light source (6) such that the fibre optic cables (2) are supplied with light from the light source (6). Between the light source (6) and the bundles (5) various colored filters (9) may be provided so that the fibre optical cables (2) may be selectively supplied with different colored light. The light source (6) may be controlled by an audio system so that the light source (6) is actuated in response to selected audio tones.
