If you are thinking about purchasing furniture for your balcony, choose options that are resistant to heat and humidity.
According to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino, it is worth looking for chairs and tables in the garden departments.
But the size of the furniture items, as well as their quantity, depends on the area of the room.
If the balcony is small, you can furnish it with folding tables and chairs - they take up a minimum of space, but at the same time perform their functions 100%. For large loggias, cozy rattan chairs are suitable.
You can even consider the option of sun loungers or a hanging chair or swing.
Another requirement for balcony furniture is that it should be in harmony with the interior decoration.
This means that plastic options are definitely not your choice.
If you are looking at built-in furniture, let it be painted the same color as the walls – this way it will look like a logical continuation of the room.
Tables and seats made from pallets are a trendy, eco-friendly and affordable solution. You can make a table, a cozy corner, a sofa with two seats or a single sofa - the choice depends on your preferences. Pillows and mattresses will complete the composition.
There is another non-standard approach to arranging a balcony: instead of traditional furniture, buy a hammock.
This versatile item will replace chairs and sun loungers. The hammock will also be a great solution for small balconies: it is much easier to hang it than to place a regular model, even a small one.
