Emma and her husband’s balcony was once a neglected space, filled with old boxes and unused objects. However, they decided to breathe new life into it by transforming it into a true haven of peace. Together, they undertook to restore the structure themselves. They first replaced the old concrete floor tiles with modern, easy-to-maintain ceramic tiles, bringing a touch of freshness and modernity.
For the walls, they chose a soft pastel paint, which they carefully applied, creating an atmosphere of lightness and space. One of their most ambitious projects was installing a retractable canopy, which they built themselves, providing shelter on hot summer days while allowing the sun to shine through when they wished.
For the flooring, they chose an elegant and eco-friendly bamboo parquet, which they laid with great care. The result was a warm and soothing ambiance, perfect for moments of relaxation.
For the furniture, Emma and her husband opted for minimalist yet functional pieces. They assembled a teak table and rattan chairs, which they had carefully selected for their simplicity and comfort. Cushions in natural tones added a discreet touch of color and softness.
They also installed planters all around the balcony, planting aromatic herbs, fragrant flowers, and a few small plants that brought life and freshness to the space.
In the evening, thanks to the string lights they hung themselves and the LED lanterns they carefully arranged, the atmosphere becomes magical, bathed in soft, warm light. This balcony, once forgotten, is now a place for sharing and serenity.
Emma and her husband love to spend time there, whether for an outdoor dinner, drinks with friends, or simply to relax with a good book. This project, completed by their own hands, has not only transformed their outdoor space but also strengthened their family bonds, making this balcony a true little paradise, where every detail was thoughtfully considered.
