Are outdoor rugs a good idea? Many of us after spending a warm weekend choosing lounging on an outdoor sofa over the living room will be wondering this exact thing. There are plenty of outdoor rug ideas to help create that luxe outdoor living room look. But is investing in a rug for the outdoors really a good, or practical idea?
‘In the past three years outdoor rugs have become something of a must-have garden accessory and the popularity shows no signs of waning,’ says Daniel Prendergast, design expert at The Rug Seller. ‘As such there is more choice in colours, pattern, size and shape than ever. We’ve seen trends mirror that of interiors – best-selling geometrics have started to make way for bright pops of colour and florals, whereas textured and sustainable materials are also growing in popularity.’
