Outdoor Sofas

Outdoor sofas turn a terrace into a living room. Our edit pairs relaxed silhouettes with weather-ready materials—powder-coated aluminium and stainless frames, teak or iroko accents, and quick-dry foams with UV-stable, easy-clean fabrics.

Choose low, loungey profiles for sun-soaked afternoons or crisper lines for a more architectural feel; modular options let you shape corner, chaise or U-setups to suit the space.

Practical touches keep life easy outside: removable covers, breathable cushions that dry fast after showers, and finishes that stay colour-true through sun and seasons.

Style with an outdoor rug and a low table for a complete setting, then add throws and lanterns as dusk arrives. Comfortable, durable and ready to host—from spring’s first coffee to late-autumn nights.

Designer Outdoor Sofas for Gardens and Terraces

An outdoor sofa can transform a patio, terrace or garden into a genuine living space. Rather than limiting the garden to dining furniture, generous lounge seating creates somewhere to relax, entertain and spend longer periods outdoors in the same way you would use an indoor living room.

RB12's collection of designer outdoor sofas includes compact two-seater designs, larger three-seater sofas, modular garden seating, chaise sections and flexible lounge systems from specialist European outdoor furniture brands.

The collection is led by Cane-line, alongside contemporary outdoor seating from Ethimo, GART, Bolia, GAN and Blomus.

Cane-line Outdoor Sofas

Cane-line forms by far the largest part of the RB12 outdoor sofa collection, providing everything from compact two-seater sofas to highly configurable modular lounge systems.

The Cane-line Nest 3-Seater Sofa, designed by Foersom & Hiort-Lorenzen MDD, combines a weather-resistant Cane-line Weave® surface with a strong aluminium frame. Its generous proportions provide a relaxed garden sofa while retaining the lighter woven appearance associated with the Nest collection.

For an even softer Scandinavian expression, the Cane-line Moments 3-Seater Sofa combines Cane-line Soft Rope with AirTouch QuickDry cushions. Its open woven structure helps the sofa feel visually light despite its generous width.

The breadth of Cane-line's range means customers can choose between more traditional fixed sofas and individual modules designed to create much larger corner and chaise arrangements.

Modular Outdoor Sofas

Modular outdoor sofas are particularly useful where the seating needs to respond precisely to the dimensions of a terrace or garden. Individual modules can be combined to create linear sofas, corners, chaise arrangements and larger lounge compositions.

Cane-line provides one of the widest modular selections within the RB12 range, with configurable seating across collections such as Moments, Savannah, Ocean, Mellow, Connect, Conic and Capture.

Rather than buying a predetermined three-seater sofa, modular systems allow the seating to grow around the available architecture. This is particularly effective on larger patios, roof terraces and outdoor entertaining areas where standard sofa dimensions can leave awkward unused space.

Italian Outdoor Sofas by Ethimo

Ethimo brings a distinctly Italian approach to outdoor seating, combining contemporary furniture design with materials and forms influenced by Mediterranean outdoor living.

The Ethimo Patio 3 Seater Sofa offers one of the most substantial designs in the current collection. The Patio family combines natural teak with woven detailing to create outdoor seating with a warmer and more decorative character.

The Ethimo Swing XL Sofa takes a more architectural approach, combining its external structure with teak detailing, while the Ethimo Costes 3 Seater Sofa provides a more restrained timber-led alternative.

These designs make Ethimo particularly suited to garden schemes where the outdoor furniture needs to feel as considered as the furniture used inside the home.

Scandinavian Outdoor Sofas

Scandinavian outdoor furniture tends to emphasise simple forms, practical materials and furniture designed around relaxed everyday use.

Cane-line provides the largest Nordic outdoor sofa collection at RB12, while Bolia brings its New Scandinavian Design approach into the garden.

The Bolia Orlando O2 Garden Sofa provides a contemporary Scandinavian lounge design, offering a softer upholstered appearance for gardens and terraces.

Scandinavian outdoor sofas work particularly well where timber, restrained colours and natural textures already form an important part of the architecture or surrounding interior.

GART Outdoor Sofas

Italian brand GART specialises in relaxed seating for both indoor and outdoor environments, creating sofas and lounge furniture with soft, informal forms.

The GART Positano Sofa provides a substantial contemporary outdoor design with a softer profile than many conventional aluminium or timber garden sofas.

GART can be particularly effective where the objective is to make the terrace feel less like a traditional garden furniture setting and more like an outdoor lounge.

Soft and Informal Outdoor Seating

Not every outdoor sofa needs to resemble a conventional framed sofa. Softer seating can create a more informal and flexible outdoor environment, particularly on sheltered terraces, balconies and relaxed lounge areas.

The GAN Mangas Outdoor Seat brings the distinctive textile-led character of the Mangas collection outdoors, providing a softer alternative to conventional framed garden furniture.

The Blomus Grow Outdoor Corner Seat offers another flexible upholstered option that can be incorporated into a larger modular outdoor seating arrangement.

Two-Seater Outdoor Sofas

Two-seater garden sofas can work particularly well on smaller terraces, patios and balconies where a full modular arrangement would take up too much space.

They also provide flexibility in larger gardens, where several smaller seating areas may be more useful than one substantial lounge composition. A two-seater sofa paired with two outdoor armchairs can create a balanced conversation area without requiring a large corner sofa.

Compact sofas are also easier to position around doors, planting and existing architectural features where the outdoor space cannot be planned as one uninterrupted rectangle.

Three-Seater Outdoor Sofas

Three-seater garden sofas provide more generous lounge seating while retaining the simplicity of a single fixed piece.

The Cane-line Nest 3-Seater Sofa offers a woven Scandinavian design, while the Cane-line Moments 3-Seater Sofa provides a softer rope-based alternative.

For Italian outdoor furniture, the Ethimo Patio 3 Seater Sofa and Ethimo Costes 3 Seater Sofa provide two very different interpretations of larger garden seating.

Outdoor Sofas for Small Patios and Balconies

For a smaller patio or balcony, begin with the sofa dimensions and leave enough space for comfortable movement around the furniture. A compact two-seater sofa may provide more useful seating than trying to fit a larger sectional arrangement into the available area.

Pair the sofa with a small outdoor coffee or side table rather than automatically adding a substantial central table.

Open-frame and visually lighter designs can also help smaller spaces feel less crowded, especially where the sofa sits against railings, glazing or a boundary wall.

Outdoor Sofas for Large Gardens and Terraces

Large terraces and gardens provide more freedom to create substantial outdoor lounge areas. Modular seating can be arranged around a central coffee table, fire feature or view and used to define the living zone within a much larger exterior space.

Rather than placing all furniture around the perimeter, consider treating the garden like an open-plan interior. The main sofa can establish one boundary of the seating area while armchairs, tables and rugs complete the composition.

Separate outdoor dining furniture can then create another distinct zone for eating and entertaining.

How to Choose an Outdoor Sofa

Start by measuring the available area and deciding how many people need to sit comfortably. Remember to allow additional space around the sofa for circulation and other furniture.

Next, consider whether a fixed or modular design is more appropriate. Fixed two and three-seater sofas provide a straightforward solution, while modular seating offers greater freedom when furnishing larger or unusually shaped spaces.

Materials and maintenance also matter. Teak, aluminium, woven synthetic fibres, rope and technical outdoor fabrics each age and respond differently to exterior conditions, so always review the individual product's care and maintenance recommendations before ordering.

Are Outdoor Sofas Weather Resistant?

Specialist outdoor sofas are designed using materials chosen to perform more effectively outside than conventional indoor upholstery, but specifications vary considerably between products.

For example, the Cane-line Nest 3-Seater Sofa uses weather-resistant Cane-line Weave® and an aluminium frame, while the Cane-line Moments 3-Seater Sofa uses the brand's QuickDry cushion system.

However, weather resistance, cushion storage and protective-cover recommendations vary between brands and models, so the individual manufacturer's care instructions should always be followed.

Creating an Outdoor Living Room

Once the sofa is established, build the rest of the space around it much as you would indoors. Add outdoor armchairs for additional seating and an outdoor coffee table to create a practical centre to the arrangement.

An outdoor rug can visually define the seating area, while planters, portable lighting and cushions introduce softer layers and help connect the terrace with the interior of the home.

For larger outdoor spaces, combine the lounge setting with outdoor dining furniture and sun loungers or daybeds to create separate areas for relaxing, dining and entertaining.

Outdoor Sofas – frequently asked questions

What is the best type of outdoor sofa?

The best outdoor sofa depends on the size of the space, number of seats required and how the furniture will be used. Fixed two and three-seater sofas work well for straightforward arrangements, while modular outdoor sofas provide greater flexibility for larger terraces and unusual layouts.

Can outdoor sofas stay outside all year?

This depends on the individual sofa, materials and manufacturer recommendations. Specialist outdoor furniture is designed for exterior use, but cushions may still benefit from dry storage or protective covers during prolonged periods of poor weather.

What materials are used for outdoor sofas?

Contemporary outdoor sofas can use aluminium, stainless steel, teak, synthetic weave, rope and specialist outdoor upholstery. Different brands use different combinations, so care requirements and weather resistance vary between products.

What is a modular outdoor sofa?

A modular outdoor sofa is made from individual seating sections that can be combined to create different arrangements. Depending on the collection, this can include straight sofas, corner layouts, chaise longues and larger U-shaped lounge settings.

Which outdoor sofa brands does RB12 sell?

RB12 offers outdoor sofas from Cane-line, Ethimo, GART, Bolia, GAN and Blomus. Cane-line currently forms the largest collection, with extensive fixed and modular outdoor seating.

Does RB12 sell Scandinavian outdoor sofas?

Does RB12 sell Italian outdoor sofas?

Does RB12 sell Cane-line outdoor sofas?

Yes. Cane-line forms the largest outdoor sofa collection at RB12, with designs including Nest, Moments, Sense, Peacock, Ocean, Savannah, Mellow, Connect, Conic and other fixed and modular seating systems.

Are outdoor sofas suitable for small balconies?

Yes, provided the sofa dimensions suit the available space. Compact two-seater designs can provide comfortable lounge seating while leaving enough room for circulation and a small side or coffee table.

What size outdoor sofa should I choose?

Measure the complete available space and allow room around the sofa for people to move comfortably. Consider any coffee tables, armchairs and architectural features before choosing the sofa width or modular configuration.

How do I create an outdoor living room?
