Arbutus Cream Transitional Machine Made Rug

Lay it under a sofa and the whole seating area pulls together. Walk in barefoot and the low 6 mm pile feels smooth and neat, the kind of floor that makes a room look finished. The colours are gentle and easy to live with Cream and beige carry the design, with taupe, brown and soft grey giving it depth.

These tones sit well with white walls, wood furniture, leather, linen and plants, so you do not need to rework the room around it. It suits a living room, a bedroom, a hallway or an entryway, and it works just as well beside a bed or under a dining table. Because the palette is warm and neutral, it blends with what you already own instead of fighting it. Each piece is machine woven on a power loom, which keeps the pattern even and the surface smooth from edge to edge

The 100% polyester face has a soft hand and a clean, low profile that chairs and doors clear with ease. Edges are folded, serged and finished with fringe for a tidy border. A non-slip backing helps it stay put on hard floors.

For a busy home, that means a rug you can live on, not one you have to fuss over.
