Outdoor furniture ideas for a small balcony
OUTDOOR FURNITURE IDEAS FOR A SMALL BALCONY - HOW DO YOU WANT TO USE YOUR BALCONY?
Before investing in new balcony furniture, it's a good idea to think about what you want to use your balcony for. For example, do you want to use it as an extra dining area? Is it a place to lie and sunbathe during the day or do you prefer to use the balcony as a place to socialise with your loved ones? Once you have decided what kind of balcony you want, it will be easier for you to decide what type of outdoor furniture suits you and your balcony best.
FURNISHING A SMALL BALCONY - THINK SPACIAL AWARENESS
To get the most out of the space on your small balcony, you need to think about which furniture will be the most flexible and fulfil the most function. For example, if you want a corner where you can socialist but can't fit a whole seating area, use a smaller sofa with some lovely pouffes or stools as extra seating. Seat cushions and stools can be stacked on top of each other when not in use, so they don't take up as much space as other furniture. Another space-saving tip is to use flower boxes instead of large pots, leaving the floor space free for furniture. There is also a great range of small balcony furniture in the form of folding chairs, café sets and smaller sofas or benches that allow you to socialise without taking up too much space.
- Use stools & poufs instead of bulky chairs
- Avoid large floor pots & instead use flower boxes for flowers & greenery.
- Folding chairs & folding tables are ideal outdoor furniture for small balconies as they can be easily removed and stored when not in use allowing multiple uses for your balcony.
- Smaller café sets or benches work on most small balconies and cover the need for dining and socialising without compromising on comfort or swallowing up all the space.
CREATE AN OUTDOOR DINING AREA
If you mainly want to use your small balcony as an extra dining area to enjoy lovely meals in the summer, a café table is ideal with matching chairs. Café sets come in a variety of designs, from traditional lacquered steel versions with a wide range of colours to versions with folding chairs and tables in teak or other woods for a more robust and classic look. This balcony furniture is specially designed for small spaces and is often foldable, which makes the furniture easy to store and move around when needed. If you want something that requires less maintenance then steel variants are preferable, while wooden balcony furniture may need to be treated from time to time to keep looking its best and withstand the weather.
A small sofa on your small balcony, the perfect place to rest and relax with a good book.
BALCONY FURNITURE FOR A PLACE OF REST & RELAXATION
Would you prefer your balcony to be a place oasis of peace and relaxations? Somewhere you can lean back with a good book or enjoy sunny days - then a smaller lounge chair or balcony sofa might just be ideal. A lounge chair or smaller sofa provides a little more space for relaxing and can be further softened with outdoor cushions, pillows and throws. With lounge furniture, you can give your small balcony a little more of a living room feel and space for restful moments outdoors.
MAXIMISE THE SPACE
When thinking about small balcony furniture, think about how you can maximise the small space you have and decide whether it should be a place mainly for eating or for relaxed hanging out - there's outdoor furniture to suit both. Be sure to measure the length, width and depth of your balcony before choosing your furniture so that you can move around the balcony easily and avoid the furniture swallowing up the entire space.
