A small balcony with plants and purposeful calm
What if you could spend time in nature without leaving your home? This welcoming balcony with plants is coordinated and organised to help you wind down. With lots of wooden furniture and greenery, it’ll draw you in and encourage you to stay awhile. After all, you deserve a break (or five) in your outdoor living room.
Where comfort awaits
Make your balcony a magnet that pulls you out of the daily grind and into the moment.- ASKHOLMEN foldable table and folding chairs are good-looking, comfortable and compact.
- Tie-on cushions and a rug add subtle softness and extra support.
- Tranquil materials and colours like acacia, dark browns, beige and black give the space a warmness.
- Woven and braided elements boost the natural feel, too.
A defined, kind-of-camouflaged haven
Emphasise that you’re outdoors (and maybe imagine you’re elsewhere). Wood-like UTLÄNGAN floor decking sets off the balcony from the indoors and creates an oasis-y base. The dividing wall is covered in artificial plants for some privacy. Putting shelving in front, with pots that match the storage, lifts the lushness.
More ways to enjoy nature (and move it around) on a balocny with plants
Hide, don’t seek
A large storage piece may seem impractical in a small space. But it’s one of those cosy balcony ideas that can be quite beneficial. With one big metal KOLBJÖRN cabinet for storage, your mind isn’t stressed by mess. You’ve got what you need for hanging laundry or a late-night hang, but it’s all out of sight. The beige finish blends in with the walls for an extra layer of cohesive calm.
Ready for the reality of laundry
Across from the cabinet in the balcony’s far corner, is the practical, yet subtle drying station.- Two foldable MULIG racks hang on hooks to be out of the way but easily accessible.
- Both racks fit fully opened side by side, and one can be kept open without interfering with the laid-back feel.
- A SLIBB hanging dryer makes the setup even more space savvy.
Room for togetherness
A bistro set with a table for two may be all you need. But a matching, foldable table and a lightweight stool let you spread out seamlessly. More surface area means plenty of space to keep what you want within reach. You won’t have to keep going back indoors or worry about your elbows knocking over the cake by mistake.
Mood enhancers
The outdoor lighting here is effortless, flexible and nearly unnoticed. It’s like the scene is set for slowing down and relaxing. Mixed light sources are ready to serve various functions and create ambience.- With LED lighting chains overhead, like SVARTRÅ, you can pretend you’re sitting under the stars.
- LAMPAN LED lamp is battery-operated and has adjustable colours to please your playful side.
- A portable VAPPEBY Bluetooth speaker lamp has two light modes and 360 degrees of the sounds you love.
