Design & Planning
We laid weatherproof composite decking, built cedar planters and added a slatted privacy screen.
Drip irrigation and warm string lights make the space easy to care for and lovely after dark.
- Composite Decking weatherproof boards laid over the bare concrete slab.
- Cedar Planters built-in planters that turn the balcony into a green retreat.
- Privacy Screen a slatted screen that blocks views without blocking light.
- Drip Irrigation automatic watering that keeps the plants healthy with little effort.
- Evening Lighting warm string lights for dinners after dark.
Project Results
The balcony was finished in three weeks, with all materials lifted in by crane in a single morning.
No items found.
Client Experience
The owner wanted a low-maintenance garden that still looks full and lush all year round.
My balcony is now my favorite room. Thank you for creating such a peaceful space.
