In recent years, as an emerging decoration design style, the sealed balcony has been warmly sought after by many owners. People enclose the balcony into an enclosed space to increase the usable area of the living room, improve privacy and security. However, as time passed, the balcony gradually lost its original charm, and more and more people were no longer interested in it. So why is the sought-after sealed balcony becoming less popular these days?
First of all, although the design of the sealed balcony can increase the usable area of the interior, it sacrifices the essence of the balcony to a large extent. As a transitional space between indoor and outdoor, the balcony should be a great place for people to relax and soak up the sun. However, the design of the enclosed balcony makes the balcony lose its connection with nature and become a closed, cramped room. It is difficult for people to feel the warmth of the sun and the comfort of the breeze here, and they fall into a state of depression and depression.
Secondly, sealing the balcony has brought more life troubles to the residents. The enclosed design leads to poor ventilation of the balcony, moisture accumulation, easy to breed mold and bacteria, and poses a potential threat to people's health. At the same time, sealing the balcony also increases the cleaning workload of the family, the closed structure of the balcony is difficult to clean, and the problems of dust accumulation and dead corners bring endless troubles to the residents.
In addition, from an economic point of view, the decoration cost of sealing the balcony is relatively high, and complex construction works such as wall isolation and glass sealing are required. Moreover, this kind of renovation often involves the waterproofing of the entire floor, which increases the cost and difficulty of decoration. For the average consumer, spending a lot of money to seal the balcony does not bring substantial returns, so more and more people are starting to reflect on whether it is worth it.
So, is there any solution for owners who have closed off their balconies?First of all, consider opening the balcony to restore its original function. A simple refurbishment can be done to reopen windows and add vents to allow balconies to better communicate with the outdoors. Secondly, you can choose some light decoration materials to decorate to increase the comfort and aesthetics of the balcony. For example, choose transparent and sun-protective glass doors and windows, install awnings, etc., which can not only ensure ventilation, but also enjoy the sun.
The once popular decoration design trend of sealing balconies is now gradually abandoned, mainly because of the limitations of its design and the many inconveniences it brings. For the problems caused by the closure of the balcony, we can solve it by reopening the balcony and improving the design. Regaining the essential function of the balcony and making it a good place for people to relax is what really meets people's living needs. Hopefully, these solutions can provide some useful references and inspiration for owners of sealed balconies.
In short, the gradual retreat of the trend of sealing balconies has triggered people's reflection on their design limitations and life troubles. By reopening the balcony and improving the design, the balcony can return to its essential function and better meet people's living needs. At the same time, for people who have not yet sealed the balcony, they should also carefully consider whether it is worth investing huge economic and energy in this renovation and renovation. After all, while we pursue fashion and comfort, we should pay more attention to the combination of practicality and nature.
