(1) Avoid sudden rise.
Sudden feeling and neutral feeling do not conform to the principle of Zhouyi. Therefore, we must do a certain degree of treatment to make it both beautiful and not depressing. A better solution is to fill in the fake ceiling and cover it up cleverly. If you want to enhance the effect, you can also place spotlights or fluorescent lamps on the ceiling of the balcony for lighting, which can avoid the shadow of light, make people unable to see clearly and have hazy beauty.
(2) Avoid rootless trees.
After the balcony is transformed into a living room, its external wall should not be too short. Some people like to use floor-to-ceiling glass as the exterior wall, thinking that this way, they can see the exterior at a glance. I don't know this situation, just like a tree without roots, empty and unreal. If the balcony is originally floor-to-ceiling glass and it is difficult to make changes, then an effective remedy is to put a long and low cabinet in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass as an external wall, thinking that there will be no obstacles when looking at the exterior. I don't know this situation, just like a tree without roots, empty and unreal. If the balcony is originally a French window glass and it is difficult to make changes, then an effective remedy is to put a long low cabinet in front of the French window glass as a substitute for the low wall. If the short cabinet is too short, plants should be placed on both sides to fill the space, which is not only beautiful and environmentally friendly, but also in line with the Book of Changes.
(3) Avoid shifting the center of gravity outward.
Because the balcony is generally a vain part that protrudes from the room and can't bear gravity. Therefore, when converting into a living room, we must be careful and follow certain load-bearing principles. Otherwise, it not only threatens the structural safety of the whole room, but also is not conducive to the feng shui of the balcony, which makes the originally relaxed balcony bear too much weight and embarrassment and destroys the original gas field of the balcony. Don't use too heavy materials when the living room and balcony are unified. Some people like to use marble to lay the floor of the living room, which is understandable, but if the balcony is also paved with marble, I am afraid it will be unbearable. After the balcony is rebuilt, put some lighter items there properly, which will not affect the safety, but also keep the original balcony empty and fresh.
In short, transforming the balcony into a living room is by no means an easy task. Must be carefully planned, carefully designed, not only to meet the needs of life, but also the charm of traditional culture, but also in line with building safety.
