The Desire DSR02 Charcoal Grey/Silver Rug introduces a refined, contemporary aesthetic through its multi-tonal linear pattern and understated bordered composition. Featuring a layered mix of charcoal, steel grey, taupe, and ivory, the design mimics a woven, pixelated texture that adds quiet rhythm and sophistication to any space. The interplay of matte and shimmering fibres gives the rug a captivating depth, with tonal shifts that vary subtly under changing light or from different viewing angles. Perfectly suited for modern living rooms, dining areas, and home offices, this design balances clean structure with soft visual movement.

Expertly machine-made in Turkey from 100% polyester, this rug features a low-profile 8 mm short pile that combines soft-touch comfort with practicality. The metallic shimmer finish enhances its modern appeal, while the latex backing provides grip and stability underfoot. Serged edges frame the rug for a clean, tailored look. Designed for moderate foot traffic, it delivers long-lasting style with low shedding and easy maintenance, making it both elegant and durable for everyday living.

The colours and shades present in this rug include:

• Charcoal Grey – Acting as the dominant background colour, this deep grey base gives the rug its strong grounding and contemporary feel, especially visible in the densely layered line segments across the field.

• Steel Grey – Woven throughout the striped grid in lighter, reflective fibres, adding tonal depth and enhancing the subtle shimmer when viewed from different angles.

• Ivory – Used as the outlining border and interspersed in the linear pattern, softening the visual impact and offering contrast that lightens the overall composition.

• Taupe – Scattered within the linear texture in soft, faded tones, adding a warm, earthy balance against the cooler greys.

• Silver – A shimmering fibre subtly woven through the design, changing shade with lighting and brushing direction, giving a dimensional, polished appearance.

• Ash Grey – Present in various mid-tones within the pattern, serving as transitional shading that enhances the pixelated woven effect.

The Desire DSR02 Charcoal Grey/Silver Rug showcases a subtle pixelated grid pattern enclosed by a slim ivory border, exuding architectural elegance and a soft, tonal palette of Charcoal Grey, Steel Grey, Ivory, Taupe, Silver, and Ash Grey. Its light-reactive shimmer introduces depth and movement, while the short, velvety pile ensures a plush yet practical surface. Blending modern design with versatile neutrality, this rug perfectly complements contemporary interiors, adding quiet texture and sophisticated warmth.

🧵 Cut Pile Rug Characteristics
Every rug has a pile direction — the direction in which the fibres run. With a cut pile rug with a shimmer, light reflects off the fibres differently, which can make the rug appear lighter or darker depending on where you are standing. You can see this by looking at the rug from one end of the room, then walking to the other end and looking back — it may appear darker in one direction and lighter in the other. This is not a manufacturing fault but a natural characteristic of cut pile rugs. It’s worth keeping in mind when deciding where to place the rug, especially if the appearance of it being lighter or darker from one side might matter in your space. This effect is in ranges such as Aurora, Craft, and Apollo. Please note: due to the cut-pile shimmer effect, the rug will display light and dark shading depending on how the pile is brushed and the direction of the light.
