First, how to decorate the balcony reasonably
Ventilation, ventilation, lighting, cooling, drying clothes, drying things, etc. , are naturally some functions of the balcony. But in addition to these, potted plants make life better, which is also an important potential function that can not be ignored. In order to prevent the hot sun from exposure in midsummer, you can use relatively strong textiles to make awnings. The awning itself not only has decorative function, but also can shelter from wind and rain. Awning can also be made of bamboo curtains and curtains.
The awning should be made to roll up and down or be telescopic, so as to adjust the area, position and angle of sunlight according to the needs. At the same time, it can also protect the room on one side of the balcony from strong sunlight, forming a comfortable indoor work and rest environment. Balcony is used for rest and dining, and a small amount of furniture is necessary. Due to the limited area and bearing capacity of the balcony,
So the furniture on the balcony should be portable folding furniture. Balcony is the best place to raise all kinds of flowers and plants at home. Potted plants can be placed on the balcony fence, but attention should be paid to safety, and guardrails should be added to prevent the flowerpots from falling and hurting people. You can also arrange vertical ropes, plastic pipes, etc., and plant climbing plants such as grapes and Parthenocissus, on the one hand, beautify the balcony,
Summer can also block the sun. In addition to green plants, flower boats and so on. It can play the role of decorating the balcony, and the balcony side wall and ground are also the focus of decoration and beautification. For example, decorative ceramic wall hangings, hanging boards, sculptures and other decorations can be hung on neat side walls, and some partition walls can also be made into antique shelves for placing decorative items. On the smooth and elegant wall surface, woven fabrics made of grass, reed, brown, hemp and corn husk can also be hung as decoration, and the balcony floor can be decorated with old carpets or other materials to increase the comfort when walking. Second, the key points of Feng Shui design for balcony decoration
When designing the inner balcony, the following four points are mainly considered:
1. When the balcony is closed, the lower opening of the window is the easiest to leak water. The usual practice is to leave a gap of 2cm under the window and then fill it with cement. It is best to seal with special foaming agent to avoid water seepage.
2. It is best to use stone as the countertop for the window sill, because compared with the wooden window sill, stone is waterproof, sun-proof and does not crack.
3. The floor laying of the inner balcony is consistent with that of the room, which can expand the space.
4. There are many ways to make balcony ceilings. Grape rack ceiling, stained glass ceiling, decorative false beam, etc. When the balcony area is small,
You don't need a ceiling to avoid downward pressure. When designing a balcony, we should consider the following three points:
1, the color matching of wall and floor tiles should be coordinated with the external wall. The specifications of floor tiles and wall tiles should be determined according to the size of the balcony, and the floor drain should be kept just in case.
2. You can make some flower stands on the balcony, not only for planting flowers and plants, but also for placing bonsai or raising birds and fish. Generally, a bucket is installed for watering and cleaning.
3. On the top of the balcony, a lifting clothes rack can be installed, which is both beautiful and convenient.
Third, the balcony decoration Feng Shui
1, the balcony design should be clear.
Many houses have two or even three balconies. In the design of family decoration, double balconies should be given priority to, and they should not be treated equally. The balcony adjacent to the living room and the master bedroom is the main balcony, and its function is mainly leisure. In the use of decoration materials, there is little difference from the living room. The commonly used materials are laminate flooring and floor tiles. If the enclosure is well done, you can also lay carpets. Interior wall latex paint is generally used for walls and tops, and its variety and style should be consistent with that of living room and master bedroom. The second balcony is generally adjacent to the kitchen, or communicates with the room outside the living room and master bedroom. The main function of the sub-balcony is to store things and hang clothes. Therefore, this balcony can be decorated without encapsulation, and the floor should be made of non-slip floor tiles that are not afraid of water, and the top and wall should be made of exterior paint. In order to facilitate storage, lockers can be placed on the balcony on the second floor to store sundries.
2, balcony design should be reasonable use of materials.
Balcony floor and decorative materials should have the performance of resisting atmospheric and rainwater erosion and preventing pollution. Brick and reinforced concrete balcony surfaces can be plastered, or paved with cylindrical bricks, plastic plates, inlaid marble and metal plates.
Matters needing attention in the use of balcony decoration materials:
Balcony packaging material: aluminum alloy is the most widely used decorative material at present, but many materials on the market are shoddy. The functions of heat insulation, sound insulation and noise reduction of plastic-steel profiles are more than 30% higher than those of other door and window materials, and the cost is only about 10% of that of aluminum alloy materials.
Exterior wall coatings are used on the roof and walls. In order to facilitate storage, lockers can be placed on the balcony on the second floor to store sundries. 2, balcony design should be reasonable use of materials.
