Vibrant Silicone Rugs

These Woven Rugs are Made Out of Silicone Cord

— December 16, 2015 — Art & Design
Two recent graduates from London's Royal College of Art are producing beautiful woven rugs that are made out of silicone cord. When it comes to outdoor flooring, it can be difficult to find something that is aesthetically pleasing, but also durable enough for the outdoors. These vibrant hand-woven rugs are the perfect solution for decorating any outdoor space.

The colorful rug collection is available via a new design company called 'Shore.' The tubular rugs are made from silicone cord, which makes them appropriate for indoor or outdoor use. The tube-like material is waterproof and UV-resistant, which makes the rugs ideal for a pool deck or a dock.

Not only are the rugs durable and easy to clean, but they are also visually striking. Each hand-woven rug comes in beautiful colors that seamlessly transition from one shade to the next.
