Less and less often city dwellers use their balconies as storage spaces, although there were times when only skis and car tires were stored there.
Modern residents consider it necessary to benefit from every square meter in their apartment and often arrange a recreation area on the balcony.
Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior, offered several ideas that will make the balcony cozy even in winter.
First, start with cleaning.
In addition to simply getting rid of stale junk, you must wash the floors and windows, and, if necessary, treat them for mold and mildew.
Secondly, storage systems
You'll have to stock up on containers and buy a rack to store everything that couldn't be thrown away.
Third, think about decor.
The best decoration for a balcony can be called winter plants. If desired, you can find a lot of decorative plants and flowers that winter on the balcony.
Fourthly, furniture
The best solution would be plastic furniture. The material is not afraid of temperature changes. It is even better to pay attention to folding models.
Fifth, create an atmosphere
Use a proven technique – pillows, blankets, textiles and curtains.
In winter, on an insulated balcony, these tips will help you organize not only a gym, but also a place for privacy.
