Set up a stunning balcony that is on low maintenance

A balcony is the prime feature of a house. It is glimpsed both by the inmates and the outsiders. Setting up a balcony that is both aesthetically pleasing and functional is noteworthy. Balconies are the components in a house that are vulnerable to extreme weather conditions. Be it extreme summer or harsh winter, balconies should be equipped adequately for a good shelter. Balconies on higher floors should be recessed properly with glass or wooden panels. This will safeguard anything on the balcony like plants, shrubs, cloth hangers or the benches. Balconies that face east and west needs additional security from the sunlight as it faces the sun more. Usually, north, northeast and south are the vital directions for a house to be faced as it receives a healthy wavelength of sunlight.



For small balconies that have minimal walking spaces, the walls can be adorned with hanging pots or hanging gardens. This will save space and makes the balcony look alluring. The rails of the balcony too can be embellished with hanging creepers. On the bright side, these ideas do not cost much.



For spacious balconies, the choices are extensive when it comes to setting up a stunning balcony area. Starting with a compact tea table and a few chairs around it, the balcony is prepared for an exquisite yet operative experience. Tea parties and casual hangouts can be done here. Open balconies that have this type of set up gives rise to a fun-filled evening with plenty of breezes.



The floor of the balcony can be tiled, marbled or even grassed. Tiled floors bring about a Mediterranean look and will make your balcony ‘Instagram worthy’. Marbled balconies are easy to clean especially during heavy rains. Make sure to place a drainage hole in the corner of the balcony for subsequent draining of rainwater. The grassy floored balconies are a darling for people who love plants and gardens. Grassy balconies decorated with vibrant flower plants will make your neighbours envious.



'No-ceiling' or open balconies are a treat to anyone who prefers the early daybreak.

Dwellers would lose themselves in this western-inspired balconies. These stunning interiors are indeed a breathtaking possession.
