Rug Dimension 9066-96, brown-black, 240×340

Graphics in three panels

The Dimension 9066-96 design is all about rhythm. The field is divided into three vertical strips, and in each one horizontal waves alternate: black, caramel, black again. In neighbouring panels the waves are shifted, so where one is black the next is light; from a distance it looks like a chessboard with a wave running through it. A straight black border frames the whole rug.

Pile and material

The rug is polypropylene and machine-made. The pile is short and dense: the close-up with a hand shows an even surface without long loops. Such pile does not crush under furniture legs, is easy to vacuum, and polypropylene tolerates damp spot cleaning.

A large format

240×340 cm is more than eight square metres. The rug covers an entire medium living room, with room for a sofa, two armchairs and a coffee table and a margin to spare, which is exactly how it lies in the room photo, under a pale sofa and a wooden table. Before ordering, mark the outline on the floor: a large rug should run under the furniture, not stop against it.

Pairings

The black-and-caramel palette works well with white walls, light wood and grey furniture. The pattern is lively on its own, so keep curtains and upholstery plain.

Geometry in similar warm tones but a compact size is offered by 9065-86. More graphic designs are in modern rugs.
