Nature dresses itself in new colors and scents and invites us to let the sun and heat enter our homes and
choose new shades for furniture and fabrics and get a full summer inside our domestic walls! In recent years we have discovered
the importance of having an open space where we can transfer our activities taking advantage of the warm rays of the sun. In many cases what we have is a small balcony; don't worry, with a few simple suggestions it is possible
to transform these spaces into functional corners where you can spend pleasant moments of break alone or in company.
How? Here are some ideas to
make your balcony special and
make the most of it !
1. Coffee table
A
small table in the corner makes this place an open-air room where you can transfer your coffee break and plan romantic dinners. The
Milo table by Serralunga (on the left - 216.72 euros) is a practical element that can
also be used as a support surface and its
particular design catches the eye and furnishes our small room by itself. It is available in various shades for easy matching. Another solution is the Toní Bistreau table by Fatboy,
light and foldable and therefore
easy to move . This feature is not to be underestimated: if your balcony is not well protected, it becomes useful to be able to quickly move the furniture inside.
2. Chairs
Chairs are also a practical element that
helps to furnish your balcony in an elegant and original way . There are many types, which is why it is important to make an appropriate and accurate choice. The secret is
to use the same style that characterizes the interior of the house to create visual continuity and make the outdoor a true extension of the home. The
Split chair by Colos (92.72 euros) is
light and resistant and adapts to many contexts thanks to the possibility of
combining the shell and frame with a wide choice of combinations. If you want to recall the
Scandinavian style you can opt for a white seat with ash wood legs, for a
modern and sophisticated touch the black single color gives a refined elegance, if you are looking for a
young and colorful effect you can create lively combinations of tones.
3. Pouf
When you have limited space available, a pouf can be an
excellent space-saving solution instead of chairs. There are beautiful
jute models that are absolutely in line with summer trends that seek sustainability and are inspired by the natural world. The
warm tones of the materials invite you to sit down and let yourself be enveloped by the
softness of the seats . An additional idea? Add an outdoor rug, it helps define your relaxation space and furnish your balcony with style.
4. Lights
To
light up your evenings and
create enchanted atmospheres, lights are an indispensable element. One of the most popular solutions is the one with the cable and bulbs, like the
Fiesta Lamp by Ideal Lux (52.82 euros). In addition to creating light effects with an indisputable charm, they serve to enhance the spaces. There are many solutions. By placing the string of lights
on the railing or on the sides, the boundaries of the balcony are characterized, becoming an integral part of the setting.
Wires that descend from above create dreamlike and special corners, especially if behind the wall of the relaxation area. Cables that start
from one side of the balcony and reach the other serve to create lively party atmospheres.
5. Bright lanterns
Placing small luminous objects near the seats or on the table allows you to add a
touch of Arabian Nights and amaze your guests. There are
models with candles , in which the vibrant light brings the surfaces that are illuminated to life. The
5271S lantern by Idistudio (top right - 59.20 euros) represents the
modern interpretation of shapes with traditional references, made with trendy summer materials such as
glass and rope . For those who prefer a
contemporary style, there are original and versatile solutions that reproduce the traditional shapes of lanterns, but in a rechargeable LED version and amaze with their very particular lighting effects.
6. Vases
Adding plants and flowers can transform even small surfaces into natural oases where you can take a relaxing break, but not only that. Greenery can become an element to furnish the space with taste, especially if you use
designer vases .
Serralunga presents vases with
simple shapes and classic references , such as the
Cup model (top right - 121.22 euros) that recalls ancient wooden bowls, or the
Cubotto Deep vase (bottom right - 132.64 euros) for those who love a
modern and refined style . For those who want
to characterize one side of the balcony , but do not have a large space, there are instead solutions such as the
Buba vase by Plust (left - 486.45 euros). Its large size becomes the protagonist of the surface and enriches the space.
No matter how small your balcony may be, there are no problems. There are many furnishing solutions that allow you to
create fascinating environments where you can enjoy the open air just outside your front door! Let yourself be inspired by these suggestions and get ready to transform your balcony into a
