Loggia is often not perceived as a living space. It is used as a storage place for boxes and other things, sometimes laundry is dried on it. This is where it all ends. But here you can organize a cozy and functional corner. To achieve such a transformation of space, you need to try. In this article we will figure out where you can start finishing the loggia, as well as what design ideas you can use.

Before proceeding with the direct finishing of the floor and walls of the loggia, it should be glazed. There are two types of glazing. The first option is cold. In this case, the glass protects the room from the penetration of precipitation and dust. To some extent, it blocks the path of the cold wind. However, it does not significantly affect the temperature inside. In summer, you can still relax in such a room, but in winter it can only be used as a storage room or dryer.
If you want to do everything efficiently, it is important to seal all the cracks. In this case, siding and tiles are suitable for interior decoration. It will not work to show imagination in arranging a cold loggia, so more often the owners decide to spend more money and insulate the room.

This is where apartment owners have a choice. Some make redevelopment, combining a loggia with a room or kitchen. In such cases, several layers of heat insulator are laid. Of course, hydro and vapor barrier works are required. Isolon is often used for vapor barrier. This material performs two functions at once (the second is additional heat preservation).
When redeveloping, the area near the window can be fenced with a bar counter or plasterboard structure, or it can be completely part of the living space without zoning.

If the space becomes one, the design of the former loggia corresponds to the interior of the kitchen or room (painting, liquid or ordinary wallpaper, gypsum panels, decorative plaster, etc.). If the site is separated, the choice of materials depends on the design idea.
It is worth noting that redevelopment is not an easy matter... Due to difficulties with documents and repairs, not everyone takes such a step. However, it is not at all necessary to demolish the wall separating the loggia from the living space. And in a limited area, you can create all the conditions for a pleasant pastime if you insulate it with high quality.
It is also worth noting the need for special glazing. The profile must have a cross section of at least 62 mm. Double-glazed windows should be two-chamber, energy-saving.
You should also install a "warm floor" or climate control system. Subject to all conditions, the loggia will be a pleasant warm and dry place, regardless of the season and weather conditions.

Popular materials
First, a rough finish of the walls is carried out. For this, putty is usually used. If a perfect leveling of the surface is required, drywall is mounted. Then proceed to the decorative part. For this, various finishing materials are used. Let's consider the most popular options.
Plastic
Plastic lining (siding) is suitable for finishing an insulated loggia. The material easily tolerates temperature extremes. Surfaces designed in this way look neat. Choice of color is possible. The panels have fasteners, due to which they are easy to assemble. They are attached to the crate.
Insulated rooms can also be finished with plastic. In this case, you can choose any width of the panels. The possibilities of design are expanding here, since, in addition to single-color matte and glossy products, there are models with a pattern, options that imitate marble and other materials.
The wide panels look quite modern. You can combine contrasting shades or use one tone. The loggia can turn out to be strict, funny or romantic. Beige, brown, pink, blue, malachite and other shades allow any idea to come true. By the way, the ceiling can also be finished with this material.

In addition to ease of installation, there are other advantages of plastic. Such surfaces are easily cleaned of contamination, and the repair costs are very modest. You should not be afraid of harm to health - plastic releases harmful substances into the air only when heated to 3000 degrees.
Wooden lining
Natural wood is the warmest and most pleasant material. If you sheathe the walls inside the loggia with such a clapboard, the room will become aesthetic and comfortable... You will get the feeling that you are on the terrace of a country house, surrounded by majestic nature. In a bustling city, this can be especially valuable. Wood retains heat well and insulates noise. The reliability of the material is beyond doubt, this finish will remain in excellent condition for more than 10-15 years.

Block house
This interesting material is often used to decorate country houses and baths. However, if you wish, you can arrange a loggia for them. Such wooden panels differ from lining in that their outer side is rounded. As a result, it seems that the wall is lined with processed logs.n. There is a mount on the inside of each element, so installation is straightforward.

Lining MDF
MDF slats are cheaper than natural wood. Moreover, they perfectly imitate different types of wood. You can choose material with the texture and color of pear, cherry, oak, walnut or other wood. The only caveat is the instability of the material to moisture. Therefore, such decoration is possible only on warm balconies and loggias.

Cork
Cork panels are an excellent eco-friendly material. It is easy to cut, does not collect dust, does not rot. The main thing is to mount the plug on a perfectly flat wall. A good solution would be a thorough preliminary plastering or installation of drywall. It is also worth noting the speed of drying of the glue on which the material is attached. In this regard, it is important to immediately lay the panels neatly.
The colors of the material do not differ in variety. However, such a finish (like wood) is chosen by people who prefer naturalness. For them, warm sandy tones are a virtue.

Parquet board
This material is usually laid on the floor, although some people use it for wall decoration as well. The result is similar to the previous options. The material is environmentally friendly, natural. However, if you lay out the floor and walls with the same parquet flooring, you get the effect of a capsule, which can be a disadvantage in a small space.
It is better to use a parquet board only for the floor, and choose something else for the walls. The material goes well with any finishing agent. The main thing is to choose the shades correctly.

Ceramic tile
It is a versatile material. Square-shaped porcelain stoneware is ideal for flooring. Walls can also be decorated with ceramic tiles if desired. There are many options. For example, it can be a "hog" imitating brickwork. Such tiles look especially impressive in red-brown and white colors. You can choose an original patchwork or a laconic monochromatic version. The material is resistant to any conditions, durable, easy to clean from dirt.

Decorative rock
Natural stone is rarely used to decorate balconies and loggias, but the artificial version is very popular. The finish is elegant and solid. However, you should not trim all the walls of a small room with stone, otherwise the space will seem even more cramped due to the texture of the coating.
A great solution would be to decorate one short wall or area under glass with a stone. You can also decorate individual fragments with this material (for example, protruding corners). The rest of the wall space can be covered with plaster.
Artificial stone usually has a natural shade, which means that it is better to select plaster in natural tones. Beige-brown and beige-white combinations are ideal.... Attempts to combine the sandy tone of the stone with the hot pink or turquoise tone of the walls can turn out to be a failure.

If you want brightness, it can be brought into the interior of the room with the help of furniture or other items of juicy shades.
Brick
Brick interior decoration is considered quite stylish today. Of course, this design has nothing to do with the pristine brick balcony. Treated surfaces look cleaner, smoother and more attractive.
As a rule, for such repairs, artificial decorative bricks are used, installed over the insulation. You can also replace the material with a reliable imitation (plastic, tiles). The best solution for decorating a small space would be to choose a light shade, although dark options also look impressive.
The snow-white finish is suitable for any interior style (Scandinavian, classic, minimalism). Beige and pale gray tones will help create a cozy Provence-style corner. Brown shades are typical for the loft style.

Interesting design ideas
Rest corner
So that you can pleasantly sit on the loggia with a cup of tea, enjoying the fresh air, you should make this place cozy. There shouldn't be any junk here. As a last resort, you can install a small closet and hide all the old things in it. The area should be as spacious as possible. A mini sofa can be installed in the corner.A pair of hanging, wicker, or regular chairs are also great options.
The decoration can be of any kind, but, of course, the best conditions for relaxation are created by light colors. If a beautiful view opens up from the window, make panoramic glazing. A small table will add comfort. A folding model built into the wall would be a good solution.

Small bedroom
If it is hot in the apartment in summer, you can equip a loggia as a bedroom. The perfect solution would be to choose a small folding sofa. In winter, it can be used as a sitting place, and in summer it can be turned into a sleeping place for one person.

Miniature gym
If there is no room for exercise machines in the apartment, you can put them on the loggias. Of course, the size of the room matters in this case. It may not fit all the elements of a full-fledged gym, but a treadmill or exercise bike will probably be able to fit. Horizontal bars can be fixed to the wall.
As for the finishing, there are some nuances here. If you have only one machine, you can place it on any surface. If you are actively exercising with dumbbells and barbells, it is better to lay rubber paving slabs on the floor. This will ensure the resistance of the coating to intense influences - an accidentally falling projectile will not harm the finish.

Mini bar
The bar counter does not take up much space. You can give her a space under the window (you get a kind of window sill). Several tall stools should be placed nearby. Provide soft, even lighting. The design can be anything you want. Bright shades, unusual solutions in the form of a slate board, neon letters will be appropriate. Even in such a small area, you will be able to recreate the atmosphere of a stylish bar overlooking the city. Your friends will surely appreciate your idea.

Cabinet
You can equip a modest workplace here. This will be especially true for those who live in a large family. Children can play noisily in the room, other members of the household can do any household chores, and you will have the opportunity to retire and work peacefully in silence.
Design a work corner better in neutral, calm colors (white, beige, brown, gray). Good lighting is important above the table. For windows, it is worth purchasing blinds or blackout roller blinds.
The main difficulty is to choose a compact table. However, today furniture is presented in stores in such a variety that it will not be difficult to find a suitable option. In extreme cases, you can order a product according to individual parameters.

Tale of the East
If you want to mentally travel to the other end of the planet and feel the atmosphere of the eastern palace, you can recreate it on your loggia. You can choose tiles with matching patterns, decorate walls or ceilings with stained-glass windows. A small rug, a soft sofa with satin cushions and a coffee table will be the effective finishing touches to the composition.

Flower garden
If the area of the room allows, you can organize a winter garden on the loggia. You just need to choose plants that do well at the light level that is typical for your home.... You can equip beautiful shelves, hanging pots. Forged racks also look great here. If you like climbing plants, you will need to make supports for them.
Sketch at least a rough plan for your mini-garden. Consider the optimal placement of each plant. Do not forget that a wide passage must be left for free movement around the territory.
As for the finish, the best option would be to choose decorative stone for walls and paving slabs for the floor. Brick finish can also look good. The green corner will be even more spectacular if you decorate it with a small fountain or an artificial waterfall. You can put a wicker chair next to it.This will allow you to comfortably relax in the greenhouse, enjoying the beauty and freshness of the greenery.

Dacha at home
If you do not have a suburban area, you can grow vegetables and herbs at home. Loggia is a great place to organize a mini-vegetable garden. You just need to correctly arrange the boxes, choose the crops that you will grow. You can place containers with earth in a cascade. This will solve the problem of lack of space. Curly greens, such as beans, can be used as a decoration.
As for the finishing, in this case it is worth paying attention only to the issue of practicality. It is better to choose materials that are easy to clean, as dirt will often fall on the floor and walls. An excellent solution would be to choose floor tiles and plastic for walls.
Beauty is not important here, because you will go out onto the loggia only to water the plantings or harvest.

Selection recommendations
Before you start thinking over the design and furnishings of the loggia, it is worth making a choice on several points.
Glazing type
Decide if you will be insulating the room. "Cold" glazing will cost you much less. However, this will severely limit the use of space. The comfort level will also be very low.
If you nevertheless made a choice in favor of this option, materials must be frost-resistant. In this case, it is better to put porcelain stoneware on the floor, and decorate the walls with siding. This is quite enough to make the premises look decent. After that, you can put cabinets-cases for the things that you will store here, mount a dryer, if you plan to use the place for such purposes.
If you decide to insulate the loggia, you first need to carry out all the insulation work, install heating systems (this was discussed at the beginning of the article). Then you can start thinking about the next question.

Functional purpose
Decide what you would like to organize in this part of the apartment. If there is a mini-gym or a garden immersed in greenery, attention should be paid to the practicality and complexity of care when choosing materials. In the second case, the moisture resistance of the finish is also an important condition.
Whether you want to create a corner for cozy gatherings over a cup of tea, an original bar or a quiet workplace, the decorative qualities of the finish come to the fore. Although, of course, one should not forget about other qualities of materials.

Repair cost
Some materials are more expensive than others. If the issue of price is important to you, ask about the cost of each option and choose the most acceptable one. Also, pay attention to the possibility of repairing yourself.
If you choose an easy-to-install material, you can save on the services of craftsmen.

Color spectrum
Remember that a light finish visually expands the space, which is especially important in a small area.... If you want to decorate the room with dark colors, combine them with light ones. For example, you can use materials of different shades and textures for different walls. You can also include light accents in the design (choose white frames for windows, decorate the walls with snow-white decor items). Light furniture will look spectacular against a dark background.
Choosing between warm and cold colors, focus on your preferences. If the windows face the north side and there is not enough sun at home, choose beige, peach, brown tones. They will make the interior warmer and more comfortable. If you like freshness and coolness, you can opt for cool grays, blues and other shades.

Bold, saturated colors can cheer you up, but it's best to incorporate them into your design with small touches in the form of decorative pillows, armchairs or chairs. If you want brightness in the finish, it is better to choose not flashy, but soft and muted colors. For example, a loggia in pale pink or pale purple tones will turn out to be romantic.A pleasant and “fresh” finish will turn out to be a light mint or blue finish. The sensation of sunlight will create a muted yellow tone.
A bright hue can be added to the finish by highlighting one short wall for it. In this case, the rest of the room should be decorated in a calm tone (for example, in white or beige). If you fill the entire space with a rich color, in a small limited space, it will "crush" and annoy, even if you like the shade itself.
