The Collection

Flexible, soft, and easy to clean, our low pile spot-clean rugs are the latest addition to our easy-care rug repertoire. Their slim, even profile makes vacuuming a dream. Made of recycled materials, these pieces resemble a wool flatweave in touch and appearance—but never shed. Stain and fade-resistant polyester is quickly cleaned with water and mild detergent, while recycled backing keeps the rug strong.

The Design

Our stain-resistant Cloudflower collection draws inspiration from traditional floral rugs. In our research, we looked to these classic hand-knotted florals, ikebana arrangements, surrealist landscapes, and the spacious, almost mystical composition of certain Oushak designs. The Dandelion rug has a border of leonine blossoms and a ground of geometric seeds scattered by the wind.

The Material

Soft as wool with a subtle silk-like sheen, the polyester we use is highly durable, OEKO-TEX certified for safety, mildew-resistant, and extremely easy to clean. These rugs are made with a recycled cotton and mixed-fiber backing that’s transformed from collected clothing and other discarded textiles and repurposed into a sturdy, flexible backing material.

The Maker

Our partner in Turkey is dedicated to the quality of its innovative products and sustainably-minded practices. We worked carefully with them to produce the designs exactly as envisioned; and we chose them for their skill and ability, which outmatched many other potential partners.

The Designer

Our in-house, all-star design team collaborates across three different countries. Based in Los Angeles, Istanbul, and Mumbai, they put a lot of thought into each and every collection they design. Starting with the weave itself, they determine material and technique, then create moodboards to capture the look and feel before starting to design. When designs are finalized, they conduct an extensive sampling process, perfecting each style and color before it goes to production.

• Clean regularly with a non-rotary vacuum. Rotate on occasion to ensure even wear over time.
• Spot cleaning instructions:
• Lightly dampen a clean paper towel or cloth with water
• Gently blot the affected area with your damp towel or cloth to dilute the stain
• If the stain persists, try using an unscented, citrus-free, clear soap to avoid bleaching the textile.
• Repeat this process until the stain is removed
• Vacuum on low power with a non-rotary (no spinning brush) vacuum or suction attachment only.
• Foot traffic and movement can skew the fiber direction of your rug. For a more uniform look, brush your rug with your hand or a stiff plastic bristle brush to smooth and reorient the pile.
