Inspirations for the terrace Three solutions for furnishing the balcony of an apartment.

Space available

First of all, the shape and size of the terrace must be considered: whether it is a small balcony, a long and narrow terrace, at an angle or with an irregular plan. Other important elements to consider are doors, windows, shutters or shutters.

Covered or uncovered terrace

Depending on the cover, the furnishing possibilities and needs change. If the terrace is uncovered, it will probably be possible to use it mostly during the summer. It may be necessary to create shade and repair the furnishings in case of rain, humidity or wind. In a covered terrace, on the other hand, the choices are wider and a space can be set up to be used both in summer and in winter.

Order and organization

Evaluate whether you need to store or hide service items on the terrace, such as utensils for plants, laundry accessories or some pantry items.

Level of privacy

If the terrace borders or faces other houses, you may need to improve privacy to carry out your outdoor activities.

Plants and flowers

If you have a terrace but not a garden, a corner of greenery or a small vegetable garden helps you feel in contact with nature all the same.
