The Foundation of Your Outdoor Sanctuary
An outdoor rug is the secret to making open-air spaces feel as intentional as any room inside your home. Best suited to dry areas like lounge rooms or sheltered patios, these rugs help define a zone, anchor your furniture, and create a sense of flow that ties everything together. While not recommended for wet areas or fully exposed outdoor settings, they’re perfect for adding texture, colour, and comfort underfoot where protection from the elements allows them to shine. Explore even more styles to ground your space in our full rugs and mats collection.

Crafted with durability in mind, our outdoor rugs are woven to handle the rhythms of daily life. Their sturdy construction and considered materials make them a reliable foundation for spaces where style meets function, giving you the confidence that beauty and practicality can go hand in hand. While they’ll always thrive best in dry or sheltered areas, they’re built to bring long-lasting colour and comfort to your home.

Styling Your Outdoor Space
The right rug can completely transform your outdoor setting, bringing together furniture, colour, and texture to create a space that feels both inviting and beautifully considered. Look to tones and patterns that echo your existing decor—whether that’s earthy neutrals to complement timber furniture or bold designs that add personality to a simple setup. Use your rug as a grounding layer, then build up with cushions, throws, and greenery for a look that feels relaxed yet refined. For more natural texture that pairs seamlessly with open-air living, explore our jute rug collection.
Creating a Seamless Transition
An outdoor rug is the perfect way to blur the boundaries between inside and out, creating a flow that feels effortless and connected. By echoing the patterns, colours, or textures from your interior spaces, these rugs help extend your style into the open air—whether it’s a sheltered patio, a balcony nook, or a sunny deck. The result is a harmonious look that ties your home together, making the outdoors feel like a natural continuation of the warmth and personality you’ve created indoors.
How to Care for Your Outdoor Rug
Our rugs are made to be loved for years, and with the right care they’ll hold onto their natural beauty season after season. Light vacuuming once a week with a flat head (never a rotating or motorised brush) will help prevent dust and dirt from settling deep into the fibres. Give your rug a gentle shake now and then to release debris and loose fibres. To avoid fading and uneven wear, rotate your rug regularly and try to keep it out of direct sunlight. If furniture sits on top, always lift rather than drag to prevent pulls or distortion, and trim any loose fibres with sharp scissors instead of tugging. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, undyed cloth to absorb excess liquid, and always check the care label for cleaning advice specific to the material. With these simple steps, your rug will stay soft underfoot and a beautiful grounding piece in your home.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are the rugs waterproof or just water-resistant?
Our outdoor rugs are best suited to dry areas such as lounge rooms or sheltered patios, where they can add warmth and texture without being exposed to constant moisture. They’re not fully waterproof, so we don’t recommend using them in wet areas or outdoor spaces open to the elements. With a little protection, they’ll keep their colour, shape, and comfort for years to come—making them a beautiful way to extend your indoor style into covered outdoor spaces.
Can These Rugs Be Used Indoors as Well?
Absolutely. While they’re designed to bring comfort and style to sheltered outdoor areas, these rugs transition beautifully indoors too. Their durable weave makes them a practical choice for high-traffic spaces like lounge rooms, hallways, or under the dining table, while their expressive patterns and colours add personality wherever they’re placed. Think of them as versatile foundations—equally at home anchoring a cosy interior as they are styling a sun-dappled patio.
Do the Colours Fade in Direct Sunlight?
Like all beautiful textiles, our outdoor rugs are best kept out of harsh, direct sunlight to preserve their rich tones and patterns. Prolonged exposure can cause fading over time, so we recommend styling them in shaded or sheltered areas where they’ll continue to look vibrant and fresh. With a little mindful placement, your rug will keep its colour and character, adding warmth and personality to your space season after season.
What Is the Best Way to Store the Rug During the Winter Months?
To keep your outdoor rug looking its best, we recommend rolling it up and storing it in a clean, dry spot when the cooler, wetter months roll in. A covered area like a garage or cupboard is ideal to protect it from moisture and dust. Avoid folding, as this can create creases—rolling keeps the weave in shape and ready to unroll when the sunshine returns. With this simple care step, your rug will stay vibrant, fresh, and ready to bring comfort and style back to your space season after season.
