Description
The Apollo is a modern textured rug in grey and gold on a soft cream ground. Its design is a grid of rectangular panels, each filled with fine horizontal stripes, so blocks of gold, pale grey and deeper grey sit side by side like a patchwork of lines. It is machine made from polypropylene and polyester, and the multi textured pile gives the stripes a ridged look and a varied feel underfoot.
It belongs in the living room, where its quiet palette sits happily alongside grey upholstery, oatmeal throws and natural wood floors. The 80 by 150cm size suits a reading corner or the space in front of an armchair, while the 120 by 170cm and 160 by 220cm sizes sit well in front of a sofa or under a coffee table. The largest, 200 by 290cm, is generous enough to anchor a whole seating area, with the front legs of the sofa and chairs resting on it. Those four rectangular sizes cover most living rooms.
Metallic effect yarn gives the design a gentle sheen that catches the light, adding a little glow to the gold and grey without turning loud. The multi textured pile settles another choice for you: this is a rug with real surface interest rather than a flat, plain finish, so it brings depth to a room of solid colours. As a practical note, measure your floor and leave a strip of bare floor around the edge before picking your size.
