BALCONY SEATS...

BALCONY SEATING!!!

After my most liked post about balconies, I thought of posting a little more on that.

Lets talk about seating and cozy setting for our balconies.

What do we need....a clean and neat space....which has a width of around 4' to 6' 

And also understand the shape of your balcony...

RECTANGLE

Now a days rectangular balconies are the only fashion in metropolitan cities...as they save a lot of space and give an ample view....


Two tables and one small table with few plantation pots...Try using the length of your balcony without 
disturbing the width and the view. Like placing lots of pot and creepers and basically using the end or the corner of the balcony.


Just work on your thoughts to make the best use of the corner i.e for storage + seating, just a decor wall, or just seating.


Balconies which have marginally less width are little tricky to handle but try using materials according to the width and length like foldable tables and chairs..

SEMI CIRCULAR


These had originated as luxurious balconies as they use good amount of space but have a very beautiful 180 degree view.

Round balconies don't have any different seating than the rectangle one...but only that the seating should be in the center for an unobstructed view...


Also most of all the round balconies have a parapet walls which sometimes obstruct view to a certain level.


So why not have a view of our own...grow a two level garden.....

TRAPEZIUM

I personally like these type of balconies as they give a good view, good corners and that extra space.

The extra space that protrudes in the front is good for seating and if the seating is on one side then use the front side as a display space.


But use such balconies properly or you may end up either doing nothing or doing two much....one thing is sure to be the ground rule for a balcony - 
NEVER CLUTTER YOUR BALCONY
BALCONY IS NOT A STORAGE ROOM

Always keep your balcony clean and usable.

Decorate the a closed balcony only for the internal view and an open balcony for internal and external view. 


All the other balconies like square are not that challenging....



So let me know your balcony complaints.....
