The SECOND LAB Rug collection focuses on the two most popular American cities, New York City and Los Angeles; two places that have a huge impact on culture both locally and worldwide. SECOND LAB uses a "new vintage" aesthetic that draws upon the concepts of second-hand and laboratory at once. This aesthetic, combined with its focus on American culture, has produced some simple and powerful welcome rugs for the home.
Keeping the vintage look of the rugs, but making them brand new gives consumers the best of both worlds. No more musty old smell or dust saturation in these rugs; the SECOND LAB Rug collection maintains a retro look with high quality materials and craftsmanship.
The SECOND LAB Rug collection is created in Japan and is available through the SECOND LAB website.
