Ania Ivory 2'2 x 10' Rug

While styled as "Contemporary," the classic paisley motif and a diverse color palette of pink, red, yellow, and green give this piece a "transitional" quality. This means it can bridge the gap between different decor styles. In a more traditional home, it adds a modern, vibrant spark; in an urban apartment or loft, it provides a sophisticated, artistic focal point that ties together various accent colors in the room.

To achieve a professional, balanced look, we recommend the "18-inch rule" for large rooms, but for narrow hallways, aim to leave about 3 to 5 inches of bare floor visible on all sides of the rug. This ensures the runner looks intentional and doesn't appear like wall-to-wall carpeting. Before purchasing, use painter's tape to outline a 2'2" x 10' rectangle on your floor to verify that it fits your space without obstructing doorways or floor vents.

This rug is crafted from high-performance synthetic fibers (polypropylene and polyester), which are highly recommended for busy families. These materials are chosen for their exceptional durability and inherent stain resistance. Unlike natural fibers that can be absorbent, synthetic weaves allow pet hair and dirt to sit on the surface for easy removal, making this rug a resilient foundation for the most active areas of your home.

To maintain the vibrant ivory and multi-colored paisley pattern, our care guidelines recommend vacuuming regularly to prevent dust and grit from settling into the pile. For accidental spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth—never rub, as this can push the liquid deeper into the fibers. For deeper maintenance, these synthetic materials respond very well to professional steam cleaning, which can help restore the rug's texture and color clarity.

A runner rug with these dimensions (2'2" x 10') is specifically designed for long, narrow transitional spaces. It is an excellent choice for hallways, entryways, or even positioned alongside a kitchen island or a double vanity in a large bathroom. Beyond protecting your floors in these high-traffic zones, a runner helps guide movement through your home and adds a layer of sound-dampening comfort to hard surfaces.

For safety and longevity, we strongly advise pairing this runner with a high-quality non-slip rug pad. Because runners are often placed in "galleries" or hallways where people move quickly, a pad is essential to keep the rug from bunching or sliding. Additionally, a pad provides extra underfoot cushioning and prevents the rug's backing from causing any abrasive wear to your hard-surface flooring over time.
