Designed for busy homes and commercial terraces alike, each piece balances durability with good looks. Style the space for weekend barbies, client catch-ups or quiet mornings, then simply hose down and get on with your day. Shop now!
Why Add a Rug Outside?
An outdoor rug anchors furniture, reduces glare, and cuts echo on hard pavers. A single patio rug can define circulation, guide foot traffic and make cool concrete feel inviting. It’s also an easy seasonal refresh, swap patterns, switch palettes, lift the mood.
Weather-friendly fibres and UV-stable dyes mean less fading and faster drying, so your setup is ready soon after a passing shower. And because they’re low-pile and tightly woven, chairs slide easily and crumbs sweep away in seconds.
Styles and Shapes for Every Setting
From coastal stripes to textured plains, you’ll find patterns that complement various surfaces. Prefer curves on the veranda? Explore our range of round outdoor rugs in Australia that look dazzling with soften angles and frame circular dining sets. For long balconies, runners help lead the eye and protect high-traffic lanes.
Working with a neutral scheme? Layer tone-on-tone for a calm backdrop. Chasing a statement? Contrast saturated colour with pale walls to energise the space.
Our outdoor range focuses on performance first. Think solution-dyed yarns and mould-resistant backings that shrug off summer storms. Choose woven outdoor rugs when you need robust construction that resists fraying and lays flat at the edges. Most pieces clean with a gentle hose and air dry; for stubborn marks, a mild detergent and soft brush usually does the trick.
Sizing & Placement That Works
Scale matters outside. As a guide, let front legs of lounges or dining chairs sit on the rug to tie the setting together. On expansive terraces, go larger to avoid a “floating island” look. For narrow spaces, align long edges with the architecture to create visual flow. Our deck rugs help protect boards in high-use spots while adding comfort underfoot.
Browse by size, colour and budget, then zoom into textures and check exact dimensions before you buy. We ship nationally, with clear lead times and careful packaging so your rug arrives ready to roll out. If you’re styling multiple zones, our team can suggest coordinating options across patterns and plains.
Keep an eye on our promotions to secure quality pieces for less. Seasonal bundles, clearance lines and limited drops appear in our sale outdoor rugs section, ideal for fit-outs or quick upgrades across several areas.
