An outdoor floor cushion is one of the most versatile seating solutions: underneath your patio roof or on the grass, for some yoga in the garden or to catch up with friends, when camping or at a festival… it’s always the right (and comfiest) answer. At the same time, you can use it to complement your existing outdoor furniture, too. To help you tick all these boxes, we’ve scouted for cushions in a varied range of colors and designs.
