When spring comes and the weather begins to be good, we begin to enjoy more and more the terraces, gardens, balconies and any available outdoor space to enjoy the cool on spring afternoons or summer nights. Not only to enjoy the weather but also the good company of friends or family, or simply to work comfortably or enjoy a read.

More and more people are concerned with decorating outdoor spaces as one more room in the house, using the carpet´s textures , we increase their comfort and practicality to be able to enjoy the space on those special occasions.

Outdoor rugs for terraces are being used more and more, as they exponentially increase the feeling of home and a cozy corner, making it seem like it is another extension of the living room or as if it were another room in the house instead of being a simple open space. In addition, it also brings colour and personality to the place.

For all these reasons, you have to try to get a perfect terrace rug. Among the factors to choose an outdoor rug or another, the material stands out first, and then personal tastes such as colour, design, size, shape, etc.

Choosing the carpet for a terrace: for its composition

For the terrace, polyester rugs are the most ideal. They resist external weather agents such as water and sun very well, and cleaning is simple. It can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner, sweeping it or even with a hose.

We could also think about implementing other types of rugs with more personality, such as Jute rugs. They have a more natural and rural appearance, so they do not fail in any setting. However, they are not recommended for outdoors, since their natural fibre makes them not very resistant to adversities such as water, sun, insects or dirt. They can rot easily if they get too much moisture.

However, if in your case you have a living room with a glazed terrace, it is undoubtedly a great option, since it will provide a very characteristic and unique design, and since it is a dry space and where it does not receive large doses of sunlight or rain, it will be a great option.

Regarding the size of the rug, it will depend mainly on the place where it is going to be placed. Chairs are normally placed on top of the rug when the terrace is used as an outside dining area to prevent tripping and wobbly chairs.

As for the design of the carpet for the terrace, it is a personal matter, being able to choose between more vivid colours or others in neutral tones. We recommend that you take risks with bright colours that reflect joy because it is a very lively space, where family and friends will gather in spring and summer, times of the year when the commitment to bright colours is the order of the day.

If you prefer to adopt the Scandinavian style of decoration, you will probably prefer to choose a rug with geometric patterns that combine perfectly with your modern furniture decoration. Geometric designs are perfect for all terraces and spaces regardless of their size.
