How to give it the conviviality it deserves?
Here are some inspirations for your small balconies.
A city balcony is usually cramped and narrow. It will therefore be necessary to redouble your imagination to make it a real living space and above all not to clutter it with useless and too imposing furniture.
Forget the garden table if it fills the space on its own (it will be the case if the balcony is less than 1.20m wide), but invest the floor with colorful cushions in pastel shades, in summer materials such as linen and cotton:pleasant, they gently recall the flavors of summer.
Simple but effective solution:metal folding tables and chairs. In addition to being practical, they will be sheltered in winter! With this solution you can decorate according to your tastes by choosing the models according to the tastes and the desired style.

If the space on your balcony allows it, you can also replace the dining table with rattan armchairs accompanied by a pretty coffee table, an invitation to total relaxation!

Just because the balcony is small and in the city doesn't mean you have to ignore plants and nature. On the contrary, bring some greenery with potted plants.
Check the exposure, the humidity level and choose your plants accordingly. You can even plant a few fruit trees and create a mini vegetable garden.
On the decorative side, vary the pots and the pleasures, the sizes, the materials (zinc, terracotta, wicker…).
Classic but flawless note:dress the balcony railing with hanging flowers.

Invest the edges of the balcony by installing your plants and your armchairs.
You can also install a bench or a custom-made bench, with a storage bin, and its cushions. This space will thus be optimized, decorated and above all used!

Rather than wasting space by installing a piece of furniture or having to go back and forth between the interior and the exterior, opt for a piece of furniture on wheels such as a sideboard. Some models are very designer with an elegant finish, and are versatile:they accommodate plants, dishes, tools...
Trunks and chests also turn out to be an ingenious decorative solution. They are stylish and practical and can be twisted in the seat.

Don't forget:the balcony is your home! Personalize its decor according to your desires and lifestyle:rugs, fake lawn, accessories - such as hanging furniture, go ahead, it's allowed!
Also put some light there with a garland on the wall for a guinguette spirit, candles, hanging lamps.
