Rug Size Guides
Outdoor area rugs are a great addition to any outdoor space. Whether you’re decorating a deck, patio, porch, or miscellaneous outdoor space, a rug can add practical comfort and style to any space. That comfort is reason enough to consider an outdoor rug, but there are plenty more benefits to consider.
Just like indoor rugs, outdoor rugs can enhance the aesthetics out whatever space they’re placed in. The rug can complement nearby furniture, accents, and architecture with ease. Unique colors, patterns, and texture can all round out the design of a specific space and create a more well rounded, stylish space that is equally beautiful and comfortable.
Since outdoor spaces are often open to other large areas, an outdoor rug can help define specific spaces. It is common to use an outdoor rug to create a comfortable outdoor seating area by physically tying all the seats together. You can have the furniture overlap with the rug to create a cohesive space, or if your outdoor area is particularly large, simply having a rug in the middle of the seating area will help you define that space’s tone and purpose. Outdoor rugs can similarly accent outdoor dining spaces, outdoor kitchens, and recreational areas.
Practically speaking, outdoor rugs create a much more comfortable surface to walk on. You may use the rug to cover a wooden deck, concrete porch, or other type of ground. Not only will the texture of the rug be more pleasant than the hard surface, but it will also protect your feet from hot or uncomfortable surfaces. If your rug is by the pool or water, an area rug can add additional grip and keep you from slipping on dripping water.
There’s no need to worry about the durability of outdoor rugs or how they’ll react to the outdoor elements. These rugs are specifically crafted to withstand the elements and stay as beautiful as the day you bought them. Outdoor area rugs do not fade in the sun, grow mold or mildew, or hold onto stains the way that popular indoor rugs do. These facets make outdoor rugs an ideal option for outside the home as well as in rooms that face heavier traffic or more messes.
Aside from their great durability and resilience, outdoor rugs are also incredibly easy to maintain. Most outdoor rugs are stain resistant and water repellent, which means that dirt and moisture isn’t drawn into the rug’s deepest fibers. Low pile or flat weave outdoor rugs can easily be shaken out to remove loose dirt and debris. Similarly, regular vacuuming and spot cleaning can keep your rug soft, comfortable, and beautiful.
One important area of maintaining your rug is to allow it to dry completely when it is exposed to moisture. Even though these rugs are water resistant, if they are out in a heavy downpour or wholly saturated, then the rug’s fibers can still be damaged by the water or growing mildew. Simply air-drying your rug is a simple yet effective way to maintain your rug’s beauty and quality.

When choosing an outdoor rug for your space, it is important to consider the rug’s size. The rug’s size and shape should be balanced primarily with its nearby furniture along with the size of the deck, patio, or porch. As an example, outdoor rugs that are situated in main seating areas are often large enough that all the furniture’s front legs can rest on the rug. Runner rugs or rugs used to establish a pathway should similarly be balanced with the space as a whole and any defined spaces nearby.
Whether you are adding a rug to an outdoor seating area, dining space, or kitchen, you can choose a rug that coordinates with your outdoor furniture. Consider how the rug’s colors, designs, and material connect to other furnishings and accents. Utilizing similar design elements throughout your space is a great way to create a cohesive, comfortable recreational area.
Even if your rug is placed in an indoor/outdoor space, it’s vital to choose a rug that can stand up to any outdoor elements. Rain, snow, sunlight, wind, and general dirt are all outdoor elements that can damage a rug’s fibers. If you intentionally invest in an outdoor rug that is built to last in these conditions, you won’t regret your purchase.
Outdoor rugs are generally affordable accents. Instead of replacing an entire set of outdoor furniture in favor of a new look, a rug can instantly transform your space and refresh the design. These rugs range in price depending on the rug’s size, shape, and materials. No matter which rug you are looking at, consider it an investment. It may cost more upfront, but if it will improve the quality of life and style of those spaces, it is a worthwhile investment.
There are some downsides to consider when it comes to outdoor area rugs. Like any other rug, an outdoor area rug must be intentionally cared for and cleaned. These rugs may be durable, but they still need regular care to maintain their beauty and integrity. Plus, there is the potential that the outdoor rug will fade and wear down over time.
Outdoor rugs are a worthy investment for those that want to add style and comfort to their outdoor spaces. Rugs add practical comfort to decks, porches, and patios with their soft material and by covering hard surfaces. They also present unique styling opportunities with their designs, colors, texture, and coordination with other decorations.
Outdoor rugs are a good idea for creating comfortable, welcoming outdoor spaces. Their stylistic impact along with their practical comfort and durability make them ideal for outdoor living spaces, outdoor dining tables, outdoor kitchens, and other general spaces. With all this knowledge, you can now confidently choose an outdoor rug that optimizes your outdoor living.
