A balcony is always going to be enjoyable, no matter how much work you put into it. Even an empty balcony can be a nice place to take a phone call or gather your thoughts. That said, there are some ways you can enhance your balcony space and transform just how much use you get out of it. It should be thought of as an extension of the rest of your living space. If you’re interested in getting the most out of your balcony space, read on for some tips from us here at Beechtree Apartments.
Get Green With It
As nice as it is to have an outdoor space like a balcony, it doesn’t feel quite like the outdoors still. You can change that some by adding in plants. Whether you have space for hanging plants or can put down a few potted plants, it’ll help your space feel more like real nature. If you’re a cook or have one in the household, consider planting herbs as well. You can get a small container of herbs that will improve your cooking on demand.
Furniture You Can Store
Consider folding furniture if you have enough room to eat meals outside but don’t want to always have it set up that way. A table that can fold down matched with foldable seating will give you the most flexibility you can imagine. You can keep it set up during the weekdays as a quick spot to grab a meal or catch up on some work, while you can easily pack it all away when you’re hosting guests and need extra standing room.
Save Space
It’s great to have some extra seating room on your apartment balcony. You can use something simple like floor pillows or a lounger just to give you a few more seats in your home. Just be sure to take measurements beforehand so you know how much you can fit. Benches with built-in storage are great space savers as well, so check those out.
Multi-Functional Items
If you want to really save space, plus some money at the same time, pick furniture that serves multiple purposes, like the benches with built-in storage we mentioned before. Other options include beverage coolers that you can use as a table or lighting to help grow plants that can also serve as extra mood lighting at night. Thinking about multi-functional uses when looking at new furniture is a great way to end up with a truly functional balcony.
