Description
Apollo is a modern abstract rug in grey and purple, with broad, sweeping swirls that look as though they were laid down with a loaded brush. Bands of pale grey, soft white and deeper grey curve and cross one another, and a muted purple runs through the hollows of the design. It is machine woven with a high and low pile: the high pile is 100% polypropylene and the low pile is 100% polyester. That difference in height gives the brushstrokes a raised, textured finish you can feel underfoot, and the pile is soft to stand on.
We see this rug in the living room, where its grey and purple palette sits comfortably with pale walls, timber floors and neutral upholstery. It comes in four rectangular sizes. The 80 by 150cm rug suits a reading corner or the space in front of a fireplace. The 120 by 170cm and 160 by 230cm sizes sit in front of or partly under a sofa to anchor a seating area, and the 200 by 290cm rug is large enough to sit under the front of a sofa, armchairs and a coffee table.
This rug is hard wearing, so it copes with the daily foot traffic of a busy living room. It is also stain resistant, which gives you the confidence to choose a lighter, softer palette for the main room of the house. Measure your space before choosing a size, leaving a margin of floor around the edges so the swirls have room to breathe.

Frequently Asked
What sizes does the Apollo rug come in?
It comes in four rectangular sizes: 80 by 150cm, 120 by 170cm, 160 by 230cm and 200 by 290cm, from a small accent rug to a large living room rug.
What is the Apollo rug made of?
It is machine woven, with a high pile of 100% polypropylene and a low pile of 100% polyester. Together they give the abstract swirls their raised texture.
How does this abstract rug feel underfoot?
The pile is soft, and the mix of high and low pile gives the surface a textured feel, so you can trace the brushstroke swirls underfoot.
What colours are in the rug?
The design is mainly grey and purple. Pale grey and soft white swirls cross one another, and a muted purple runs through the deeper areas of the pattern.
Is this rug practical for a busy living room?
Yes. It is hard wearing for everyday foot traffic and stain resistant, so it is a sensible choice for a family living room or a room where guests often gather.
