Lowell Point Gray 8' x 10' Rug

An 8' x 10' rug is an ideal "anchor" size for medium to large living rooms. To achieve a professional, balanced look, we recommend placing the front legs of your sofa and accent chairs on the rug. This creates a unified seating area and prevents the "floating rug" look. Based on the 18-inch rule, you should also aim to leave about 18 inches of bare floor between the rug's edge and the walls to ensure the room feels spacious rather than cramped.

Polypropylene is a preferred material for humid or coastal environments because it is naturally moisture-resistant and less prone to mold and mildew compared to 100% natural fiber rugs. While the backing contains a small amount of jute for structure, the 90% synthetic face of the rug dries quickly and maintains its color integrity even in damp conditions, making it a durable option for sunrooms or homes in high-humidity regions.

To keep the vibrant colors looking their best, our care guide recommends vacuuming the rug regularly to prevent dirt from settling into the fibers. For accidental spills, synthetic materials like polypropylene are remarkably easy to maintain; simply blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth and spot-clean with a mild detergent and cool water if necessary. Because of the tight power-loomed weave, most household debris sits on the surface rather than becoming embedded.

Yes, this rug is specifically engineered for high-traffic environments. It is power-loomed with a blend of 90% polypropylene, a synthetic fiber prized for its exceptional durability and resistance to fraying. Unlike delicate natural fibers, polypropylene is resilient under heavy foot traffic, making it a reliable choice for the busiest areas of a modern home, such as a main hallway or a primary family gathering space.

This rug is an excellent choice for pet owners. The geometric bohemian pattern and vibrant color palette—including shades of gray, orange, and teal—are strategically effective at concealing pet hair and minor wear between cleanings. Furthermore, the synthetic polypropylene fibers are non-shedding and snag-resistant, so they won't easily pull or unravel if caught by a pet’s claws.

Absolutely. An 8' x 10' rug is the standard recommendation for a king-sized bed. For the best aesthetic, place the rug under the bottom two-thirds of the bed, allowing it to extend past the sides and the foot. This layout provides a soft, warm landing for your feet in the morning while framing the bed as the focal point of the bedroom.
