Balcony design decoration 3 square meters
Each person strives to create a beautiful and interesting interior in his home. The balcony room deserves special attention. Today we will talk about how to decorate a balcony with an area of 3 sq. m.
Basic design principles
Most often, small balconies can be found in Khrushchev apartments. To decorate such rooms, it is better to use the lightest colors and shades, since the interior in such colors can make the space visually larger.
When choosing a material for decorating a floor covering, it is better to give preference to ordinary linoleum or wood base. These floors will not need much maintenance. Moreover, they are quite durable.

If you have an ordinary balcony in a panel house, then the indoor environment should be done as compact and simple as possible. Don't choose too many pieces of furniture. A good option would be placing several small indoor plants... If you have a long panoramic balcony, then it is better to place even less furniture.
Choice of finishing materials
After glazing, you should take up the interior design of the room. A variety of materials can be used to decorate balcony rooms.
- Lining. This finishing material is considered the most popular among consumers. At the same time, it is better to choose pine species, because the colors and natural pattern of such a coating can visually expand the space. In addition, coniferous wood is not afraid of high humidity levels. Additionally, it is covered with a special protective impregnation.
- Plastic panels. This material is lightweight, but it is also fragile, so its installation must be done as carefully as possible. The inner filling of such panels has pores, which provide good air permeability in the room.
- Plasterboard boards. Sometimes these slabs are used as a base for uneven old walls. When choosing such materials, preference should be given to moisture resistant types. They are attached to a metal structure.
- Brick. If you want to make the decoration of the balcony more interesting, then you can use decorative bricks. This material is considered quite practical and easy to clean.
