Bringing coziness to your balcony or terrace

Summer is approaching in the northern hemisphere, and you may already be starting to enjoy the outdoors in your garden, terrace, or balcony. It is your favorite place for summer holidays where you can relax, read a good book, enjoy a glass of wine, cook a barbecue, and do a thousand other things. But are you sure that your terrace or balcony is ready, comfortable, and, above all, beautiful enough to welcome you and your guests? Here are some tips to make this area the ideal place for your summer days and even the rest of the year.

  1. If you have a small terrace, it’s essential to ensure that it is comfortable. When placing furniture, it is recommended to position everything next to the wall or corner for better circulation.

  1. All furniture and decorative accessories should be suitable for outdoor use and be able to withstand the elements. They should require minimal maintenance, with adequate cleaning and protection against rain or direct sunlight, if necessary. The most commonly used materials are rattan (natural or synthetic), aluminum, recycled pallets, teak wood, plastic, or custom-made pieces.
