Everyone equips a balcony in their own style and for their own preferences, because someone arranges whole flower gardens on their balcony, it is not uncommon for artists to like to be creative on the balcony, but someone wants to have a cup of coffee in the fresh air and admire the views.
But these are not all the functions of the balcony, because the balcony is also part of the facade, which means that aesthetic qualities are far from last. The main element of the balcony decoration is wrought iron railings. And the choice of forged products for the balcony is not entirely simple as it might seem at first glance..
Forging can be divided into two categories, the first is when each part of the product is forged by a blacksmith, for example, work under a grapevine, is considered aerobatics of blacksmithing, but the second category contains only forged elements made on blacksmith equipment. In either case, it is important that the forging on the balcony is in harmony with the overall facade of the house..
When choosing a fence, do not forget about safety, large openings are not allowed in patterns, i.e. openwork will not be superfluous, and no sharp elements on the inside of the fence, and the height should be at least one meter. A wooden handrail will not be superfluous at all, wood and forging are very visually combined.
A beautiful, wrought-iron canopy will come in handy for every balcony. It will not only blend beautifully with the overall picture, but also protect from precipitation and the sun, but you do not need to make this structure «heavy», an elegant canopy will look better.
Forging on the balcony can complement itself with such elements as a forged lantern and forged furniture, however, it is better not to overdo it with forged products, the saturation of forging can easily turn into tasteless bloom.
Responsibly, you need to approach the choice of forging coating, because forging on the balcony is exposed to external environmental influences. Additional varnish coating, will keep the paint longer.
The color scheme should be matched according to the color of the facade, however, the coating under old silver, gold and bronze is considered a classic, it is practical and richly overcame.
As you can see, the choice of forging on the balcony requires a creative and technical approach. Take your time when choosing, sketch out a sketch, this will help you understand how you would like to see your balcony. Let the balcony delight you with its beauty and convenience!
