It is a very versatile resource to obtain extra meters, gain a viewpoint or enjoy an outdoor area all year round. <\/span>Closing a balcony or a terrace to gain meters of interior space can be an ideal solution for small-sized homes or in cold areas where you can get more out of a covered outdoor space than an uncovered one, since it can be used all year round. . Below you will find some ideas and advice that will inspire you if you are thinking of carrying out a reform of this type<\/span> balcony railing.<\/span><\/p>\n When we decide to close a balcony or terrace, the first thing to keep in mind is that we are going to need a series of building permits, since the appearance of the fa\u00e7ade is going to be modified. These will depend on where the balcony is located: if it is a main or secondary facade, if it is a historic building whose facade is protected… So in addition to asking the neighbors for permission, you will have to study the regulations of your city. You can also take help from experts <\/span>railing installation in Los Gatos<\/b><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n In most cases, light structures are used to enclose these spaces: enclosures that cover the balconies and that, as they are not major works, make it easier to obtain permits from neighbors and the administration. In this image, the old balcony has been converted into an office, covering everything with a beautiful curved glass enclosure, which makes the space appear larger and the light and views are spectacular.<\/span><\/p>\n The old wall that served as a separation has also been conditioned so that it has an office style and the pavement is continuous. This is very important when we incorporate a balcony into an interior: updating the design not only of the area that is incorporated as an interior but also, if necessary, of the entire room. In this way, the space will be more homogeneous and it will seem naturally that there was never an outside area there.<\/span><\/p>\n Applying an enclosure of this type to an entire terrace can generate an impressive panoramic viewpoint like this one. It is worth thinking about if you are not very interested in having an outdoor area or if you have an additional one that can fulfill these functions. The views will become a changing picture, depending on the time of day or the season of the year in which we find ourselves.<\/span><\/p>\n However, you can also opt for a mixed solution. In this other house, part of the terrace has been used to expand the interior space and turn it into a living area. The large windows and the same treatment of materials on the floor and walls, create here, on the contrary, complicity between the exterior and the interior.<\/span><\/p>\n Another situation that is easy to find when integrating a balcony into an interior is uneven floors. In this project, it was resolved using the same tile-type brick cladding for this area as for the exterior, thus making it stand out from the rest of the interior paving, which is made of polished cement.<\/span><\/p>\n This difference in height between an exterior and interior floor is something that happens, in fact, quite often. In certain cases, even, the height is not a single step. Rather than trying to equalize it, which will probably look weird, it is best to significantly increase that height difference, as has been done here. So we can also use the holes as storage.<\/span><\/p>\n On certain occasions, a balcony can be closed but the interior walls that acted as separation cannot be torn down because they are structural. What can be done in these cases with this small space is to create a viewpoint or gallery that can be used all year round, as a reading corner or to listen to music.<\/span><\/p>\n Likewise, it may happen that it is not a lack of space that encourages us as the main reason to close an outdoor area, but rather want to expand a room, for example, to create a living room inside a bedroom, as in the photo . This is an option that should be explored when you have many meters of terrace, in order to enjoy it all year round without suffering from inclement weather.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It is a very versatile resource to obtain extra meters, gain a viewpoint or enjoy…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":704,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[95],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-703","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-home-improvement"],"yoast_head":"\n
