Turn your balcony into an outdoor room.

A few metres outdoors can hold a slow breakfast or a quiet evening. Start with the moment you want to enjoy there, then choose the furniture.

Choose one main use

Dining, reading and a collection of plants can compete in a small footprint. Decide what happens most often and check the door, walkway and occupied chairs.

Respond to sun and weather

Observe the exposure through the day. Plants, shade and finishes should suit the actual conditions. Heavy or fixed elements may require appropriate structural and building checks.

Light without glare

A warm, diffused light near the seating area can extend the use of the balcony after sunset. Choose products declared suitable for outdoor use.

Test it before buying

Lay paper templates on the floor in the sizes of your proposed table and chairs. Walk the route you would use to serve a meal.
