Description
The Apollo is a modern rug in grey and navy, and its design is all about line. Fine navy stripes run across a soft grey ground, then sweep round into wide arches at either end, so the whole pattern reads like one continuous ribbon folding back on itself. The grey has a gently mottled, worn look that softens the crisp stripes. It is machine made from polypropylene and polyester, and the multi textured pile gives the stripes and the ground a different feel, so the pattern has real depth underfoot.
Its quiet grey and navy palette suits a modern living room, sitting easily with pale wooden floors and grey upholstery, and the curves give the room a clear focal point without adding busy colour. It comes in four rectangular sizes: 80 by 150cm beside a chair, 120 by 170cm or 160 by 220cm in front of a sofa, and 200 by 290cm under a sofa and coffee table together. The 60 by 230cm runner suits a hallway or a long, narrow stretch of floor.
Metallic effect yarn gives the design a subtle sheen that shifts with the light, a little lift that a flat print lacks. The multi textured pile brings the arches forward from the grey, so the pattern reads as clearly from the sofa as it does close up. Before you choose, measure the space and allow a border of bare floor; with the front feet of the sofa resting on the rug, the room feels settled.
