These New Wool Rugs Look Designer, But Start From $290
Convinced a new rug will somehow transform your home's entire personality? Honestly, sometimes it does.
Our homes work overtime in winter: acting as restaurants, cinemas, fitness studios and weekend sanctuaries all rolled into one. With all the extra time spent at home, it’s hard to fight the sudden urge to refresh absolutely everything in sight. A new sofa, lamp or coffee table are all worthy investments, but a new rug might be the most impactful (and cosy) update you can make. And thankfully, it doesn’t have to cost a fortune either.
Double, the Australian interiors brand loved for its design-led, washable rugs, makes it easy to lean into your seasonal home design dreams. The brand’s stylish range of durable, washable rugs are surprisingly affordable, with pieces starting from $290. The price point makes it much easier to experiment with different styles, switching pieces in and out as you put them in the wash, like you would a duvet cover. Plus, it also means messy pets, sticky kids’ hands and wine spills don’t have to equal instant disaster.
We’re already big fans of Double’s colour-washed mid-century inspired rugs and graphic collab designs, like this standout luxury collection with McMullin. Now there’s a whole new range of wool flatweave rugs to explore, all handwoven in India with 100% wool on a cotton warp. This collection comes off the back of Double’s natural jute rug collection (released in May 2026) and signals an exciting shift towards more fully machine-washable, natural fibre rugs.
There are eight new wool flatweave designs to choose from, spanning graphic layouts, abstract forms and contemporary motifs, all in neutral-leaning shades like olive, terracotta and charcoal. Each feels timeless yet expressive, designed with real spaces in mind.
Topping our wish list? The Riven, which features a neutral base framed by an incomplete charcoal border, and the Cantena, a delicious deep olive rug outlined by a geometric border. Honestly, we can picture pretty much every style slotting effortlessly into modern homes, though.
With its flatweave construction, you can expect a smoother surface underfoot that will also sit much better under furniture and actually hold up in busy areas. The wool fibre brings welcome warmth, without sacrificing on practicality.
Throw on free shipping and returns, and we’re genuinely running out of reasons not to add-to-cart.
