Out into the air ...

... is what everyone wants as soon as the sun is higher in the sky again. Even a tiny balcony can become a private oasis if you design it with love. Of course, this includes tubs and boxes that are full of greenery and flowers, but also a nice place to sit and make yourself really cosy.

I see my balcony as a fully-fledged extra room in the open air and use it whenever possible. A quick breakfast in the morning sun puts me in such a good mood that I can easily get through the office day. Later in the day, I can easily switch off with a light dinner and a good glass of wine.

Here you will find a colourful bouquet of ideas to help you make your balcony cosy and practical.

The balcony offers almost as much potential as a "real" garden - and sometimes it even has advantages. Snails, for example, won't cause you any trouble. Experiment to your heart's content, because a green thumb is not innate, it grows gradually!

When it comes to office supplies, I believe in form and function. From pens, scissors, paper notes to glittery glue and funky folders. That’s what I’m about at work. When I’m not busy checking out the latest desk accessories, I enjoy jetting off to remote corners of the world, lifting weights or taking an evening walk.
