stylish and cool modern balcony decor ideas

A balcony can be designed in many ways and styles and you may give it a thousand looks but I’d like to share my favorite solutions – modern decor ideas.

Color Schemes And Styles

First of all, decide whether you want only modern (which is mid-century modern) style or you’d like to add something else to that. It can be Scandinavian, minimalist, contemporary, rustic, boho and some other styles that will look with modern in full harmony.

Second, think of a color scheme you are going for: these can be neutrals, black and white, black, white and grey or light-stained wood and much more. There are many color schemes that go well with modern style and bright colors can be included, too.

Decor And Styling

A modern balcony can be styled in many ways according to what area you want and how much space is at your disposal. It can be a dining or a living room, a small nook just for one for reading, relaxing and having drinks or even an orangery but here climate is an important point, too. Choose furniture according to the purpose and function of your balcony and don’t clutter the space, especially if it’s small. Incorporate as much greenery as you want, from potted and growing to real living walls and floors. Printed textiles, planters and rugs will add interest to the balcony, and string lights and candle lanterns will help you to light it up. Get inspired by the ideas we’ve prepared for you!
