You could play with fake grass; have a look at this thread and see what they've done: https://www.houzz.co.uk/discussions/balcony-makeover-dsvw-vd~534450 The beauty of the fake grass is that you don't have to lay it like a carpet, you can cut it any way you like or just have some under your bistro table and chairs as a 'green rug'. I had fun with it in my back garden; the space was too small to have a lawn (last 2 photos). Bought the astro-turf in B&Q (£15/sqm) - so far it behaved quite well :)) Hope this helps. Good luck!

Hi lesleyschillinger, what do you mean about more artistic? A drawing, shape or material? Frosted glass is a nice option. Maybe you can add a digital print illustration (any style) to the frosted glass. Same colour as the glass will create a really nice effect and won't be too heavy visually. I'm not sure if you mean this but, in this bedroom I designed a few year ago, I created something similar for a furniture https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/small-bedroom-1-modern-phvw-vp~7225623 Kind Regards Norikei www.norikei.com

I've moved into an apartment with a small (4x1.5m) balcony with great coastal views. It's fairly exposed and gets a lot of sun and wind. I'm looking for ideas for planting. I'm looking for neat uncluttered look. Thanks
