Description
The Apollo is a textured modern rug in grey and ivory, laid out as a grid of rectangular panels, each filled with fine stripes. The lines change weight and shade from one panel to the next, so soft grey, cream and silver play against one another across the whole surface. It is machine made from polypropylene and polyester, and its multi-textured pile gives the stripes a surface you can feel underfoot, not just look at.
We think it is at its best in a living room, where the quiet palette sits easily with grey upholstery, pale wood floors and white walls. It comes in four sizes. The 80 by 150cm rug suits a reading corner or the space beside an armchair, and 120 by 170cm sits neatly in front of a smaller sofa. At 160 by 220cm it anchors a seating area with the front feet of the sofa and chairs resting on it, while 200 by 290cm fills a larger room with space for a coffee table and the furniture around it.
The metallic effect yarn settles a common worry about grey rugs looking flat: it adds a gentle shimmer without bringing in another colour, so the rug works alongside the greys and creams you already have. The multi-textured pile means the stripes read as texture rather than print, which keeps a neutral design from feeling plain. Before you choose, measure your seating area and allow a margin of bare floor around the edges.

Frequently Asked
What sizes does the Apollo rug come in?
It comes in four sizes: 80 by 150cm, 120 by 170cm, 160 by 220cm and 200 by 290cm, so there is a size for most living rooms.
What is the Apollo rug made from?
The rug is machine made from a blend of polypropylene and polyester, with a metallic effect yarn running through the striped design.
How does the rug feel underfoot?
Its pile is multi-textured, so the stripes have a tactile surface you can feel underfoot rather than a flat, printed finish.
What colours are in the Grey / Ivory colourway?
The stripes run in soft grey, cream and ivory, with a silver metallic effect yarn that catches the light as you move around the room.
Which room is this rug best suited to?
We recommend it for a living room, where its grey and ivory stripes sit comfortably with neutral sofas, pale wood floors and white walls.
