The Desire DSR03 Ivory/Taupe Rug brings a sense of modern movement and refined texture to contemporary interiors. Its striking crisscross linear pattern is set against a softly distressed ivory base, with intersecting lines in taupe, charcoal, and grey tones creating visual depth and geometric rhythm. Subtle carved detailing enhances the tactile dimension, while the metallic shimmer finish adds luminosity and a soft reflective quality that changes under varying light conditions. Ideal for modern living rooms, bedrooms, and open-plan spaces, this rug blends expressive design with soothing neutral tones for a statement that remains effortlessly elegant.

Crafted in Turkey from 100% polyester, this rug features a low-profile 8 mm short pile that’s soft to the touch, durable, and easy to clean. The machine-woven construction ensures consistent quality, while the latex backing adds stability and grip. Its metallic shimmer fibres shift between light and dark depending on the viewing angle or pile direction, lending a luxurious sheen that complements the abstract artistry of the pattern. Designed for moderate foot traffic and low maintenance, it’s the perfect combination of style, softness, and everyday practicality.

The colours and shades present in this rug include:

• Ivory – Serving as the dominant background colour, creating a light and airy foundation that brightens any interior space.

• Taupe – Used within the abstract crisscrossing lines, this warm mid-tone adds structure and an organic, earthy balance to the overall design.

• Charcoal Grey – Woven through the deeper outlines of the pattern, offering a bold contrast that enhances the linear geometry.

• Stone Grey – Lightly distressed into the background, softening the ivory base and contributing to a nuanced sense of depth.

• Ash Grey – Found in the transitional shading and soft edges, this cool tone bridges the darker accents with the light base, adding visual texture.

• Warm Mocha – Present in faintly scattered speckles and highlights, bringing warmth and a subtle richness to the design.

The Desire DSR03 Ivory/Taupe Rug merges Ivory, Taupe, Charcoal Grey, Stone Grey, Ash Grey, and Warm Mocha into a layered crisscross abstract design that radiates contemporary sophistication. Its soft-touch 8 mm short pile and light-reactive shimmer finish create a dynamic surface that shifts with movement and lighting, offering a refined play of contrast and sheen. Machine-made in Turkey with durable, easy-care polyester fibres, this rug is non-shedding, low maintenance, and ideally suited for modern living spaces seeking both visual impact and everyday comfort.

🧵 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.
