Pictures can be hung as decorations, colored blinds or other bright curtains can be placed on the windows. Fresh flowers will not be superfluous.

Lacquered furniture in dark brown or red-black will look great. You can also equip the balcony with all sorts of screens, partitions, and hang bamboo blinds on the windows. You can pick up and hang an original fan or panel on the wall. Other accessories in oriental style will also be appropriate.
mediterranean
For a special flavor in the Mediterranean style, it is necessary to use natural materials. For wall cladding, use wooden materials, tiles in the appropriate style with a pattern, wicker chairs are also appropriate here, or maybe you like a hammock or a deck chair. In addition to everything, a home palm tree will look great. But do not clutter up the space too much, overloading it with overall or voluminous objects.
Here, the most common colors will be: turquoise, mint, brown, olive or white.
Hi-tech style
If you paid attention to the photo of the loggia design in this style, you noticed that it has a minimum of everything, as well as glass and metal furniture, accessories, decorated in silver, black or gray. And yet, the most popular here will be the color scheme “under the metal”.
And in order to visually expand the space in this style, it is recommended to equip LED lamps under the ceiling, and the more of them, the better.
Country style
This design is characterized by the use of a special decorative stone, as well as wooden elements, fresh flowers and bright colors. As curtains for windows, choose fabrics on which a large ornament will be applied, and colored floor paths on the floor.
Furniture can be absolutely simple: benches made of wood, a regular table and chairs upholstered in chintz fabric.
modern loft
This style is great for those with large balconies. In the photo, the design of the loggia is 6 meters, you have already seen how such rooms are decorated. Now in more detail, because large balconies include those with an area of \u200b\u200bmore than six square meters.
Here you can zone the room, thanks to screens and partitions. Set up maximum lighting. That is why this style is perfect for balconies with panoramic windows.
There should be a minimum of decor here, the furniture is ordinary, without any luxury, the color scheme is the same throughout the interior. Gray and blue tones are appropriate here.
Joining as an idea for a loggia
Among other things, loggias can be attached to a room, thereby increasing its total area! But accession is possible partial or complete. In the first case, it will only be necessary to remove the balcony doors, and no permission will be required.
If you do a complete connection of the balcony, then you need to do a complete redevelopment, which will require permits from the relevant authorities, and this will need to be done first.
Very often loggias are connected to kitchens. And in this case, it is not required to demolish the window sill. But it can be very stylishly used, for example, as a bar counter!
Also, the combination of the loggia can be done with the bedroom or living room.
The only downside to the whole merging process is that it is quite labor intensive. After all, first it will be necessary to solve the documentary part, having agreed on all the nuances of redevelopment in the housing and communal services, and draw up a project there. And the repair process itself will require an investment of a lot of time and effort.
Design of balconies and loggias - finishing
Interior design of any room should be beautiful, stylish, comfortable and practical. Much depends on the materials that you will use for finishing work in your loggia.
Floor and insulation
This item is very important, especially on the balcony. As the main finishing material for floor insulation, you can use materials such as: foam, expanded clay, foam, foam or mineral wool.
The main characteristics of materials for floor insulation on the loggia:
- Expanded clay is light weight, fire resistant and easy to install. But it will take a lot, it absorbs moisture very much, and besides, it is quite fragile. To make the highest quality insulation effect, you need a sufficiently large layer of material, and this will reduce the space.
- Foam is lightweight and inexpensive. But it is not very durable and hygroscopic.
- Min. cotton wool - has a long period of operation, non-combustible, it is easy to lay it. But it has a low level of moisture resistance.
- Penoplex is a durable material, durable and, moreover, is not afraid of frost. But it is flammable and quite expensive.
- Penofon is an excellent material for hydro and thermal insulation, thanks to it you can save a lot of balcony space. But it must be used only together with penoplex.
The warming procedure takes place in several stages, namely:
- Surfaces are cleaned. As a rule, it is enough to vacuum the floor surface well.
- The first layer of thin insulation is laid, preferably in whole layers.
- The second layer is laid.
- Wooden bars are installed and fixed.
- Polystyrene is filled into the chambers formed between the bars.
- Levels out.
- Chipboard and plywood are laid on top.
This is of course a laborious process, but if you have the desire and opportunity, you can do all the work yourself!
wall cladding
Thanks to wall cladding, their surface is not only leveled, but also allows you to make hydro and sound insulation of the room, as well as insulate it.
Material selection
To sheathe the walls on the balcony, you can use materials such as:
- Drywall
- Plastic panels
- clapboard
- Cork panels
- Decorative rock
When choosing a material, you need to proceed from how practical and suitable it is for your room. For example, if your balcony is on the sunny side, you should not use brightly colored plastic panels, choose clapboard or cork. As a more economical sheathing, it is worth using drywall or MDF. But if you live in a climate where harsh winters, then you should generally use natural stone.
If you are "close" to the issue of organizing your balcony, you can consider various options for redevelopment and interior design.
As a result, you may get:
- Office - work area.
- The kitchen is small and very comfortable.
- The bedroom - although not too big, but how comfortable!
It is very interesting to equip your own loggia. And in this regard, trust your imagination and our recommendations, and then you will definitely succeed!
Finishing the balcony inside is not an easy task, but not quite difficult either. In fact, it is recommended that you first carefully assess what you want to see after the completion of the repair work and start some action from there.
The purpose of the balcony
First, let's decide on the purpose of the balcony:
- Balcony for relaxation;
- Study;
- Play area;
- Warehouse, etc.
The choice of this or that purpose of the balcony depends on the preferences of the owners and on the size of the balcony itself. Of course, if the dimensions of the balcony allow, then here you can arrange everything as you like. However, if the balcony is small, then you should not despair either. The main thing is to think over everything correctly and then even a small balcony can be equipped to suit all your wishes and possibilities.
Whichever of the arrangement options you choose, the balcony in any case must be insulated. If the balcony will be used as a storage room, then it is enough to insulate the outer walls of the balcony and, of course, put double-glazed windows on the windows. For all other options, in addition to the insulation of external walls and windows, it is necessary to make additional batteries and "warm" floors.
So, the insulation work has been carried out, you can start arranging and decorating.
material requirements
Finishing material for balconies must be resistant to ultraviolet rays. It is recommended to choose a material that has a thermal conductivity of no more than 0.3 W / mK. The interior decoration of balconies with a high coefficient of thermal conductivity and density is used as a passive source of cooling or, conversely, space heating. As you know, dark colors quickly warm up in the sun, but in small visits it is difficult to harmoniously use such shades. Basically, they are only suitable for floors. Therefore, it is recommended to finish the walls and ceiling with materials that can reflect solar energy, directing it downward.
This type is ideal for rooms where sharp temperature fluctuations can occur. At the moment, the interior decoration of the balcony inside the clapboard is one of the inexpensive and relatively simple options. What is such a material? This is a board that is used for sheathing surfaces. Its width can vary from 10 to 15 cm. During finishing, the connection occurs in a puzzle way, this is what allows you to create a seamless seamless cladding.
Now the sheathing board is made of wood and plastic. The latter option has a low price, is easy to clean, does not fade in the sun, and is moisture resistant. However, its significant disadvantage is the unnaturalness of the material. But wooden lining, on the contrary, with high-quality processing, not only has all of the above qualities, but at the same time it is environmentally safe for human health. It is also worth noting a few words of design. Thanks to its diversity, the balcony space can be made truly cozy, stylish and beautiful.
The interior decoration of the balcony with plastic panels is now quite common. The popularity of such coverage is well deserved. It has a long service life and a wide range of designs. The installation of such panels is somewhat similar to lining the balcony with clapboard.
Panel Specifications:
- width from 25 to 33.5 cm;
- length from 2 meters;
- thickness 5-10 mm.
Plastic panels are made from polyvinyl chloride using the extrusion method.
Advantages of plastic panels:
- the main plus is the low price;
- ease of installation;
- a large selection of colors, including imitation of natural materials (wood, stone);
- exceptional ease of care;
- high rates of sound and heat insulation.
Flaws:
- low resistance to mechanical stress;
- instability to sudden temperature changes - the room must be well insulated from the inside;
- on the sunny side, the plastic burns out quickly, and can also emit an unpleasant odor when heated.
Drywall
Now it's time for the drywall. They sheathe the entire surface inside the room, so that later they can ennoble it with the help of finishing materials. When choosing this material, you need to consider the level of moisture resistance. Manufacturers have specially made drywall of this class, which fully meets all the requirements. The sheet is covered with green cardboard with blue markings.
This type of finish is recommended for use on unglazed balconies and loggias. Siding is a metal sheet that is attached to a special frame. The final result of the whole structure will depend on its quality of installation. For work, it is necessary to have a hacksaw for metal and scissors in order to cut sheets of the desired size. Less commonly used for these purposes grinder. It is worth immediately voicing the unpleasant side of such material - a quick loss of color, especially if the balcony is on the sunny side. Installation of siding is quite simple: the sheets are inserted one by one into the main panel and screwed on top with screws.
Decorative plaster
The traditional option for wall decoration can be called decorative or embossed plaster. Such material is produced in a wide range, and is applied with different depth and complexity of the relief. This type of coating is also protective, as it protects the walls from the penetration of moisture and dust.
It is very important that having applied the plaster mortar on the walls once, the owner is free to change the color of the finish at any time, since it will not be difficult to repaint the surfaces. To change the color scheme, you only need water-based paint, a brush and a roller.
Decorative rock
Natural stone has a high cost and a lot of weight, so an artificial decorative stone made of gypsum, acrylic or quartz is usually used for interior decoration of a balcony.
Ceramic tile
The main advantage of the material lies in its hygiene, since the tile is easy to clean, it is easy and simple to wash it, in addition, it easily withstands the action of detergents. It should also be noted decorative properties, many colors, as well as style and aesthetics, which will allow you to create a unique balcony interior.
Ceramic tiles are durable, resistant to various influences material that will last for many years. In addition, it should be noted its environmental safety. The tile is cold to the touch and slippery, so it is better not to use it for finishing the floor.

The balcony in the apartment often turns into a place where unnecessary things are stored that are a pity to throw away. As a result, the exit to the balcony area is cluttered to such an extent that it becomes impossible to walk there.

Design ideas for a balcony or loggia
There are many decorations of the premises, including the adjacent areas to them. Designers recommend combining the overall style of an apartment or house with a balcony.
Combination with the room
In small apartments, many owners combine a room and a balcony. This is a tedious and costly undertaking. There are several positive and negative aspects of such redevelopment.
- Expansion of space;
- Original design.
Along with the advantages, there are also disadvantages. Before embarking on redevelopment, you should carefully consider and calculate the costs.
- The absence of a balcony door is considered a change in layout. Such a decision can bring a lot of problems with paperwork when reselling an apartment.
- To combine a loggia and a room will bring less costs than work on the insulation of a balcony. In some cases, it will not be possible to insulate the space at all, due to the specifics of the structure of the house.
- If the wall that needs to be demolished turns out to be a load-bearing one, redevelopment can become life-threatening for the residents of the house.
- You will need to install an additional heating radiator.
The wall may or may not be demolished. Designers suggest leaving the entrance without a balcony door, making a small threshold between the room and the balcony.
Balcony bedroom
In summer it is always nice to sleep in the fresh air. For this purpose, the balcony in the apartment is the best place. If space permits, a single bed and bookshelves can be placed there. It is not recommended to place large and heavy pieces of furniture on the balcony.
For walls, it is best to use pastel colors. If the house is brick, the walls can be left without sheathing. In this case, the bricks are covered with paint similar in color to the general background.
Study
A small space allows you to place a small table and a computer on the balcony. Shelves are placed above the table. You should also conduct wiring to the balcony so that you can sit at work and in the dark.
open balcony
Window profiles allow you to create completely glazed balconies without a parapet. If access to the site allows you to enjoy a beautiful view, then this design will be the most suitable for a balcony. There you should also buy comfortable chairs and a small table.
Children's Corner
As a rule, more natural light enters the balcony than the apartment. The design should be discussed with the child in advance. In the design you need to use bright accents and small furniture. A playroom on the balcony will unload the apartment from toys.
Such an interior may not be suitable for apartments where the balcony is not insulated and is used only in summer. You should also think about the safety of the child in advance. Install locks on windows or simply remove window handles.
The list of balcony designs for 2019 goes on and on. The site is turned into a dressing room, a greenhouse or a hookah room.

Before starting work, you should completely free the balcony from things and draw a project. It will include: general layout, area, dimensions, availability of electrical wiring and materials that will need to be purchased. You should also decide what time of year the balcony will be used: in summer or all year round.
If the balcony will be used in the cold season, you should think about warming it. For this procedure, you will need sheets of foam or foam. The material will not only insulate the walls, but also get rid of excessive external noise and uneven vertical surfaces.
Balcony insulation is complicated by the fact that it does not have side walls, like a loggia. In addition, there is often a fire escape on the site, which cannot be removed or blocked.
The floor is usually insulated with foam or other heat-insulating material. Top layer: laminate, parquet, plywood or carpet. The balconies also have underfloor heating. In this case, the option of laying a tile floor is possible. At the same stage, electrical wiring is laid, if it is provided for by the project.
If you need to glaze the balcony, then you should know that hinged windows are more suitable for balconies intended for year-round use. The sliding profile is most often used for the summer, they are less airtight and let cold air into the room.
A balcony is another place in an apartment or house where free time is usefully spent. You can decorate a small space to your taste on your own or with the help of qualified specialists. The main thing is that the interior should be adjusted to the habits and favorite activities of their owners.
