Learn How to Beautify your balcony
However technologically advanced man may become, he shall continue to be a social animal. With a population of more than eight million, Bangalore is growing at a fast pace in terms of technological development, art and culture, and a comfortable life. But this growing population is also a major cause for the rising pollution in Bangalore. This has resulted in a need for more and more living space thus giving rise to the increase in the number of housing societies and storeyed buildings. Some of the popular ones include, Godrej apartments, Pride Regalia, Embassy Palace, among others. Earlier, with bigger houses and more space, gardens and spacious living rooms were used to hold parties and get togethers. But with the development of apartments, living rooms have come to be smaller and gardens have completely disappeared. With this change in the structural ethos of modern day homes, balconies come as a rescue.
Balconies provide with an open space to spend leisure time at. Balconies that are essentially designed as a means of having some open space within the enclosed, small modern day dwellings can be simple and basic, but with personal customization they can be converted into one of the best get together places.
Here’s how you can customize your balcony:
A Touch of Nature
The best way to bring alive an otherwise dull balcony, is to place earthen pots with shrubs and flowering plants planted, on the sides so as to bring about a essence of a garden. Vines on the walls and the railings add a cherry on the cake. Likewise, Bonsai is a wonderful option.
Balconies with Streams of Light
Balconies jutting out of buildings can be made to look beautiful by placing lamp shades that compliment the vines and plants around. Pastel coloured shades with yellow light bulbs inside, make for a cozy environment in the balcony.
Decorated Balconies
If the balcony is big enough, a cane or bamboo swing can be placed on one side with chairs on the other. Cushions of a variety of colours hold the ability to bring a completely different charm to the balcony.
During summers, table fans decorated with a flowering vine can be kept at corners of the balcony, to make it look both beautiful and green, and prevent guests from sweating in the heat of the weather.
Investment Matters
While shrubs and vines can be bought from any well maintained nurseries; chairs, cushions, lamp shades, swings, and vases and planters, are easily available online at home decor stores. Some of the best ones include pepperfry, fabfurnish, craftsvilla, and urban ladder. Good quality furniture
