When the weather is nice, there’s nothing better than going out to the terrace and enjoying various outdoor activities, family breakfast, reading a good book, having an aperitif… It is important to create a space where you are comfortable, a small oasis, to relax and give it the use it deserves.
In this post we will give you some ideas to transform your outdoor space and create an ideal environment.
Decoration
– Furniture. The most important thing is to have functional furniture that adapts to our needs. If we have little space, for example, we can use folding furniture. If we want to create a chill-out space, we can opt for an outdoor sofa. It is also a good idea to recycle materials such as the famous pallets and make our own furniture.
– Textiles. Textiles are one of the most important elements to achieve a comfortable and pleasant space. They are also ideal to give a touch of color to your terrace without investing too much money. Cushions of different sizes, mosquito nets, rugs and mats… It is also important to have a storage space where you can put all these elements in case of bad weather.
– Plants. Plants are an element that brings color and vitality to the environment. They are also ideal for the outdoors. It is important to know what type of plants adapt best according to the amount of light and other weather factors in our area.
Lighting
Good lighting is essential for terraces. There are several types of lighting, from the most traditional such as floor or wall lamps, to garlands and lanterns. You can also make light points to create a warm atmosphere.
–Solar lights. Using solar lamps is a plus, since they do not consume electrical energy and are autonomous. This way you don’t have to worry about anything and you also save money.
–Citronella. If you decide to light your space with candles, you can use citronella candles and keep mosquitoes away.
