With stackable and hanging planters, one can install more than the expected amount of greenery without giving up on all the space. Placing big lavish planters is a big no for compact balconies. With stackable and hanging planters, you could create that lush greenery drape around your balcony railings.

2. Cafe style furniture - Buying a set of foldable chairs and tables would work wonders to oomph up the comfort of your soon-to-be balcony garden. Foldable space-saving furniture would be the most suitable for compact balconies and would work just fine, being the highlight of lavish balconies. They are easy to store away; hence, the balcony does not have to be the permanent place for that furniture setup.

3. Let lighting handle the drama - Your choice of lighting is the anchor of the theme you wish to give your balcony. Yellow hue lights work really well with a leafy view. Work with pendant lighting that offers textured lighting. This way, you add drama to the picture without making it look too flashy. The beauty of simplicity will always win over extravagant elements.

4. Why hesitate to decor? - Sure the space is compact, and with the elements mentioned above, it would feel like the perfect picture of the balcony garden is done but minimal pop of vibrancy is a must for any space. Make your balcony garden feel like more of your area by minimally decorating it with comfy rugs. Now, why rugs? Well, they enhance comfort, style, and structure. They surely win over other decoratives like wall art.
