It is difficult to find a beautiful house that also does not have a beautiful balcony, terrace or porch. Traditional Malaysian homes had long winding balconies encircling the entire house, or at least the entire façade. In many kampong houses we still see large verandas. Whether it is a small space or big, you can most surely style it according to your tastes. 

Searching for inspiration to jazz up your balcony? We will show you twelve of the finest balconies that you will ever come across – you're welcome.

A green landscape

Don’t be sad if your city home does not have a small garden. Build a sanctuary of peace and relaxation on your terrace. See how this terrace, styled with simple furniture and lots of potted plants, turned itself into a charming outdoor living room.

Ultimate urban terrace

If you want to build a multipurpose terrace in a small space for your city home then this is the style for you to follow. Planned by Mandril Arquitetura e Interiores, this terrace has an open air living room, kitchen and small dining space. In short, it has everything you need to live like a king in the open air.

A nature lover’s dream

This rustic balcony is a nature lover’s dream habitat. It has hilly terrains defining its contour, walls and flooring studded with pebbles of varying sizes and an organic area rug adding comfort under the feet. Prominent use of earthen shades helps to augment its beauty.

Style in a small package

Those who fret at the very thought of decorating a small space can take a cue or two from this terrace. It is the gap between the actual structure and the boundary wall that has been turned into a most luxurious terrace. Tiled walls, stylish flooring, an understated colour scheme and smart furniture suitable for such a narrow space were used to give it a cheerful makeover.

Connect with nature

Ever wanted to create a more meaningful connection with nature or embrace it within the four walls of your home? See how this balcony makes this possible. It is separated from the living room by a large door. The use of bamboo furniture, eco-friendly furnishing and décor makes it look even more graceful.

Sun and the city

If you have so far rued the lack of a sun deck in your city apartment, you can heave a sigh of relief. This city home showed how to transform a small balcony into a trendy sundeck. The wood flooring, large planters full of green plants, wicker chair and a few candles are all that were needed to create an utterly romantic outdoor space.

A space to chill out

Another small terrace, another stunning decoration, this time from Lopez Interiores. It has everything that a lavishly styled patio deserves – rustic chairs with cosy cushions, a rock bed, small fountain and lots of greenery. Would you still say a small space is a bane for stylish terrace décor?

Soaked in vivid hues

Luxury does not always need to be expensive. It is something that is highly cherishable, yet not enjoyed by many – like this spacious terrace soaked in vivid colours. It is decorated with a concrete daybed and cosy cushions, a number of plants and a couple of Acapulco chairs. Isn’t this the kind of luxury that you were craving?

A style statement

Use of stylish Wedgewood Furniture redefined this otherwise typical country setting. The warmth of the wood is accented with red cushions. The chairs have attached shelves for holding glasses or snacks. A coffee and side table also adorn this spectacular outdoor lounge.

Coastal dream

Malaysia boasts 4,675 kilometres of coastline. If you are lucky enough to own a beachside villa, why not use the views of the blue vastness to create a splendid terrace of your own? You can also build a sundeck like this one by Isnara Gurgel Arquitetura + Interiores. Loll on the bamboo recliners during your free time and enjoy the relentless crashing of the waves on the shore.

Sleek and dark

Use of black and dark grey tones are usually shunned even on an outdoor area like a terrace. But this house, planned by GLR Arquitectos, proves to be an exception. The designer has built a trendy outdoor kitchen and dining space using a variation of dark shades. The wooden roof above adds a note of cosy warmth.

Tropical paradise

A spacious terrace decorated with bamboo chairs and sofas. Even the tables and stools are made of bamboo. It's a place to sit and feel the gentle breeze, listen to the soft murmur of the leaves or a bird’s song early in the day, and relax.

Remember the famous words of poet Friedrich Schiller, “Joy, in nature’s wide dominion/ Mightiest cause of all is found / And ’tis joy that moves the pinion / When the wheel of time goes round.” Make the most of your outdoor spaces – your body and mind will thank you for it.
