I admit that I am a \”local dog\”! I didn’t expect that the balcony would be so cool after being designed like this.

The balcony is the space with the best lighting in the home. I believe many people decorate it like me and use it to dry clothes. Although it is a pity, this is the most basic need of life.

However, when I saw other people’s balcony designs, I admitted that I was a “native”, and I didn’t expect that my ideas would open up. Finally, the balcony turned out to be so cool.

In this issue, let’s talk about balcony design and see how other people’s homes are designed. It’s really cool.

1. Incorporate the balcony into the living room

Remove the wall stacks on both sides of the balcony door opening and completely integrate the space into the living room, which is considered the best solution A common way to deal with it. In addition to making the living room look more transparent and open, it can also maximize the introduction of sunlight.

In addition, even if the wall stacks on both sides of the balcony door opening cannot be smashed, the wall stacks can be flattened by storage cabinets and integrated with the living room to make the space look more orderly.

How to design it after incorporating it into the balcony?

①Weaken the balcony

The simplest way to deal with it is to do nothing and make it completely become a part of the living room, turning the small space into a large space and making the large space more grand, thus maximizing it. Expand the living room area

②Floor leisure

Families with children, or Families with leisure needs can design a platform on the balcony, which not only meets the needs of parents and children, but also allows adults to relax here.

If you need certain storage needs, you can also raise the floor by 20cm to make a tatami to further expand the storage at home. space, and extend the function of the guest room.

2. Independent design of the balcony

If you don’t want to include it in the living room, or If you like independent space, we can also give the balcony more functionality according to your own needs when decorating, as follows.

①Study style

If you need to work from home for a long time, you can transform the balcony into an independent study room. Not only do you and your family not interfere with each other, but you also solve the embarrassment of not having enough room at home.

As for the balcony partition treatment, it can be a glass sliding door, or a glass window + glass door.

If you only have occasional office needs or like to play games online, you can convert the balcony into an open study. While meeting the functions, it can also minimize the enclosure of the space.

②Fitness

Fitness among young people has become a trend. If you don’t have time to go to the gym If so, converting the balcony into a fitness area is also a good choice.

Not only adults can exercise here, but also swings, climbing frames, and ladders can be installed so that children can also exercise. This play activity makes the space more interesting.

③Gardening

For some plant experts, the balcony is A large natural garden, with a comfortable chair and a small tea table, is very comfortable whether drinking tea, reading a book, or basking in the sun, and even the air in the home is much fresher.

3. The balcony is divided into two

As far as today\’s house types are concerned, long balcony structures are very common, whether they are large or small and medium-sized. Therefore, when designing, we can also divide it into two to maximize utilization. rate.

①Glass partition

Use glass sliding doors or folding doors to separate the balcony , part of it is incorporated into the living room to expand the sense of space; part of it is converted into a washing and drying area, which not only solves daily needs, but also provides a certain degree of privacy.

Four. Closed balcony design

It is said that the first step in decoration is In fact, we can choose to seal the balcony according to our own preferences and needs, as follows.

①Do not seal the balcony

Not everyone likes to seal the balcony Get up, even though you know there will be rain and dust if the balcony is not sealed, but for the sake ofWith better ventilation and views, I decided not to seal the balcony.

However, safety needs to be done, such as retaining the original balcony guardrails; such as installing invisible protective nets on the balcony. ; Another example is installing a sliding door of better quality for the balcony.

②Heavy-duty sliding door

If you want to have good ventilation and visibility, What should I do if I don’t want rainwater to enter my home? You can install a heavy-duty sliding door on the balcony, which can be opened at ordinary times to increase ventilation and closed on rainy days to prevent rainwater from entering the home.

In addition, this kind of closure method also needs to retain the balcony guardrails and install invisible protective nets to avoid leaving Some safety hazards.

However, one thing should be reminded that although the invisible protective net can increase safety, when there are children at home, Try to choose the conventional method to close the balcony.

5. How to dry clothes?

If your home has a long balcony structure, then this problem can be easily solved, just divide it into two as above. If it is an ordinary balcony, then you need to install a dryer.

In addition, we can also use other spaces at home to dry clothes. For example, a small kitchen balcony, a north balcony, a balcony in a bedroom, or a movable clothes drying rack.

Some people may say, what should I do if there is no sunshine in these places? In fact, sunshine is not necessary to dry clothes, as long as the ventilation environment is ensured. That’s fine. Besides, some clothes made of special materials are not suitable for sun exposure.
