Installing a bar in front of the balcony
To maximize visibility and natural light, the bar should be located right in front of the window or the area facing the outside. The bar can be fixed to window frames, railings or window sills to ensure firmness.
If the window sill has a suitable height, the homeowner can also expand the surface to turn it into a compact and convenient bar.
Install a bar on the side of the balcony
For balconies with limited areas, placing a bar counter along the side wall is an effective solution to save space. Although the length of the counter may be shorter, this area still meets the needs of relaxation or light work.
In addition, you can combine shelves or wall cabinets on top to store books, decorations or small potted plants, helping to increase usage.
Installing a bar at the boundary between the balcony and the interior space
Another option is to arrange a bar counter at the transition between the balcony and the living area in the house. This design creates a feeling of clear space division but still maintains connection and ventilation. Thanks to that, the balcony becomes a private corner to relax without being completely separated from the overall house.
Notes on bar size
The size of the bar counter needs to be calculated appropriately to ensure comfort when used. The distance from the seat surface to the counter should range from 25-35 cm, helping the passenger to have a convenient position and avoid feeling cumbersome.
In terms of length, each seating position should be arranged about 53-64 cm. Homeowners can consider the number of regular users to choose a suitable size, both meeting living needs and not making the balcony cramped.
