Balcony Ideas and Designs

Projekt von Baufritz Die Dachterrasse vor dem Schlafzimmer ermöglicht, dank eines Glas-Balkongeländers in jeder (Sitz-)Höhe einen uneingeschränkten Blick über den Bodensee.

L'espace salle à mangé amène un peu de gaieté au balcon avec ces différentes couleurs. Cet espace est délimité par un pot rectangulaire blanc qui permet de caché le vis à vis tout en apportant de la végétation à la terrasse. L'espace salle à manger à été crée dans un esprit famille avec une grande table dînatoire et une banquette pour les enfants.

Fringe Dweller’s sculpted extension transforms an unassuming weatherboard cottage into a proud forever home. It walks multiple tightropes at once: balancing openness with privacy, strength with softness, and a rich history with our clients’ future needs. On Clifton Hill’s suburban edge, the house sits opposite the leafy Quarries Park Reserve. Our clients, Ishtar and Craig, have three children and purchased their cottage to create a long-term family home. Lying within a heritage overlay, the cottage’s traditional layout is largely preserved – only tweaked, in a wise parenting move, to form three equally sized bedrooms. The extension’s shared spaces feature rich materials, a warm palette and curved edges, creating a feeling of softness and easing transitions between zones. A staircase arcing through the living areas leads up to the lounge and main suite. Elevated above street level, these spaces can more freely relate to the park: the lounge’s attached balcony overlooks the park’s open field, while the main bedroom’s floor-to-ceiling window frames magnificent foliage. Downstairs, sliding doors connect the living areas to a semi-covered deck, while the garden beyond is embraced by a self-contained studio at the rear and high walls on either side. A brick wall interspersed with permeable screens lines the site’s public edge, balancing backyard privacy with neighbourhood connection. For passers-by, it’s a strong addition to the streetscape, granting glimpses of the lush garden within. Fringe Dweller embraces its presence on the fringe of the parklands, balancing its historical context with its future as a nurturing family home.
