The balcony is the beautiful part of the building, with a nice view and fresh air that makes it so relaxing that one spends more time on the balcony only. Our family and friends can also join the part of this area. But it's very important how to make the balcony beautiful. In most cases, balconies are used only for storage. We will cover the design of the balcony in the following points
1. Flooring
As to give the balcony an outside look, the flooring should be natural and should feel comfortable. Engineering wood and artificial grass is the best element that can be used for flooring. But remember the flooring of the balcony should not retain the water (rain), there should be a proper flow of water, and at the same time cleaning should be easy. For that, you can use deck flooring (raised flooring). This help the upper surface gets dry quickly.
2. Wall
As the balcony space is too small compared to other areas, we have to utilize each structure properly, at the wall we can use vertical elements, like pots, a vertical garden, bookshelves, racks, lights, and so on, It depends on what’s your interest is. Creativity has no end; we have placed a small waterfall with bamboos and panels for one of our clients. The folding table is also the best option to utilize the space.

3. View
Balcony should be placed in just a manner that it should a have a proper view, other buildings should not obstruct the view. Sometimes each other balcony comes exactly in front of another balcony, which should be avoided.
4. Ceiling
Special care has to be taken in the case of the balcony ceiling, As it considers the other portion of the building, weatherize conditions can damage the ceiling. Plaster of Paris should be avoided. Even birds can be a problem if there is a grid ceiling, birds can make nests. Engineering woods is very suitable with HPCL panels. I will suggest keeping the ceiling plan to avoid high maintenance. You can fix coff light to give the balcony a good look.
5. Railing
The railing is the heart of the balcony, with beautiful design and shape can enrich the balcony's beauty. Railing pots and stands are also available in the market which can be easily fixed in any type of railing, or you can make a customized also. These pots are used to plant small creepers which can merge into the railing. The stand can be used to have food or for small office work, One of my clients has converted its small balcony into a beautiful studying area.
6. Elements in the balcony
Sofa, Chairs, tables, and swings are the best elements that make the balcony complete.
