If you’re lucky enough to have a balcony as part of your residence, you probably know how important it is to have outdoor space. Sure, you could put a few lawn chairs and a small end table out there and it would work just fine, but why not make the most of your balcony and transform the space from top to bottom?
Install built-in seating. If your balcony doesn’t have a lot of space, maximize the area by adding built-in bench seating. One huge benefit is you don’t have to worry about high winds blowing over the seats.
Add greenery. Fill your balcony with lush plants to enhance its backyard feel. You could even add some herbs to make the space smell fantastic.
Place an outdoor rug on the floor. Choose a rug that can withstand the elements while adding a splash of color or design to your balcony.
Create a sense of privacy. Don’t let a shared wall ruin your design ideas. A room divider can give the illusion of privacy if your balcony is next to your neighbor’s. Paint it a bold color to make it stand out.
Private outdoor space on your balcony doesn’t have to be drab. In fact, it could even be an extension of your indoor aesthetic. Look around your house to see if you can add any inside items to your outside space, and then head to your home improvement and decor store to complete the transformation.
