Elam Beige 9' X 12'2 Rug
SKU: 86714005
Let there be light - even when there's not. The dazzling array of vibrant colors and abstract patterns of our Elam Collection were inspired by the way light dances and refracts off a reflective surface. Bring the illusion of sunlight and movement to even the darkest of spaces. When vacuuming use without a beater bar or one where you can set the bar to the highest pile setting. If your vacuum has variable power settings, set on low. Spot clean stains immediately with a mild detergent, rinse thoroughly and blot dry. Rotate for even wear.

How can I use a light-colored rug to make a darker room feel larger and brighter?
Lighter tones, such as the beige and gray found in this design, are highly effective at reflecting natural and artificial light, which visually expands a space. The specific abstract pattern of this collection was inspired by the way light refracts off reflective surfaces, specifically intended to bring the illusion of sunlight and movement to darker areas of the home.
Will a 9' x 12'2 rug fit properly under a king-sized bed?
This rug size is a premier choice for a primary bedroom. When placing a rug under a king-sized bed, a 9' x 12'2 rug provides ample coverage, allowing for a soft, comfortable landing on both sides and at the foot of the bed. We recommend positioning the rug so it begins about a quarter of the way down from the head of the bed, ensuring it extends significantly beyond the sides to create a balanced and luxurious aesthetic.
Is this low-pile rug suitable for high-traffic areas like an entryway or a busy family room?
Yes, this rug is an excellent choice for high-traffic zones. Its 0.5-inch pile height offers a sleek, contemporary profile that is more resistant to matting than higher-pile alternatives. Low-pile rugs are generally easier to maintain and vacuum, making them a practical and durable solution for households with significant foot traffic, children, or pets.
What are the sizing and placement rules for a large rug in a spacious living room?
For a 9' x 12'2 rug, which is classified as a mansion-sized rug, the goal is to anchor your seating arrangement and define the boundaries of the room. In a large living room, you should ideally place the rug so that all legs of your sofa and accent chairs sit comfortably on the surface. If the space is exceptionally large, ensuring at least the front legs of all seating pieces rest on the rug will prevent a "floating" look and create a cohesive, grounded environment.
I have an open-concept living area; how can a mansion-sized rug help define my floor plan?
In open-concept layouts, large rugs act as "islands" that define specific functional zones without the need for walls. A 9' x 12'2 rug is substantial enough to encompass an entire conversation area or a large dining set, providing a clear visual boundary that distinguishes the living space from the kitchen or dining area. This helps organize the flow of the home while adding texture and acoustic dampening to large, open rooms.
How should I clean and maintain a rug with a geometric or abstract pattern?
To preserve the vibrancy of the geometric pattern and the integrity of the fibers, vacuum regularly using a setting without a beater bar, or set the bar to the highest pile setting on low power. Based on our material care expertise, we recommend blotting stains immediately with a mild detergent and rinsing thoroughly before blotting dry. Rotating the rug every six months is essential to ensure even wear and prevent specific areas from fading or thinning more quickly than others.
