Balcony Makeover
Most balconies in Egypt end up storing things nobody uses. A balcony makeover reclaims that space — measured properly, planned around how you want to use it, and finished so it works in July as well as January.
Who this is for
- Apartment owners and renters with a balcony that's become storage
- Anyone who wants somewhere to sit outside without leaving home
- Small spaces — a two-metre balcony is a completely normal project
Problems this solves
- Bare tiles and an unfinished look
- Nowhere comfortable to sit
- Harsh afternoon sun making the space unusable
- Dust, wind and neighbours overlooking you
Design possibilities
- Composite or timber decking laid over existing tiles
- Compact built-in or freestanding seating
- Vertical greenery and planters sized to the space
- Warm lighting for evening use
- Screening and shade where it's needed
Materials and approach
Weather-resistant timber and composite, powder-coated steel, outdoor-grade fabrics, and planting chosen for the amount of sun your balcony actually gets.
