Bring a touch of texture to your exterior spaces.
Introducing textiles into your outdoor space, whether it is a patio, deck, or porch, allows you to create a warm, inviting oasis perfect for lounging or entertaining. An outdoor rug, in particular, brings soft texture to an area that's often full of rough, hard surfaces, like brick, wood, concrete, or tile. But finding the right patterns, colors, and materials to complement your space is often a unique challenge, since there are so many different options to consider—and you have to make sure the rug you pick can stand up to the elements and pair well with your outdoor furniture, too.
To help you find the best outdoor rug for your exterior space, we rounded up several of our favorites on the market. They feel just as cozy as the ones inside your home, but are durable enough for outside use—so you can enjoy they way they bring color and texture to your patio or deck season after season.
