How to choose furniture for a loggia

Planning the interior of the loggia, special attention should be paid to the choice of furniture, because the loggia is not quite an ordinary room, which means that special requirements will be made for the furniture. How to choose furniture for a loggia?
When choosing furniture for a loggia it is necessary first of all to consider, whether the loggia is glazed. If not, then the choice immediately becomes many times already. You will either have to choose plastic furniture (or other furniture that is not afraid of rain), or give preference to folding furniture, which will be decomposed only when you are on the loggia, and at other times it will stand folded somewhere in a safe place.
If the loggia is glazed, it will be easier to choose furniture for the loggia. However, some limitations are still worth considering. Usually loggias have a fairly modest area, so The furniture you choose should be as compact as possible, so that there is enough "living space" in the loggia while maintaining functionality.
Also the choice of furniture will depend on the purpose of the loggia. Some people want to equip the loggiaan additional room - do not lose the same area - but keep in mind that the loggia refers to unheated rooms, which are strictly forbidden to carry out central heating. Therefore, in the winter from such a room there will be little rent, so there is no sense in buying there "heaped" furniture.
True, from the situation with heating there is a way out. Alternative methods can be usedheating (electric fireplace, warm floor) or carefully insulate the loggia, providing a good thermal insulation, in this case the loggia will be heated by the heating battery installed in the next room. In this case, there really is a chance to make a separate room from the loggia, furnishing it with such furniture as you wish.
So, what furniture to choose for a loggia? The main requirement is compactness. The popularity of folding and folding furniture: they wanted to drink tea - they threw back the table, spread out the chairs, pooched, and then returned the loggia to its original appearance and began other activities.
Another good option for the loggia - a wide window sill in combination with high bar stools. The window sill can serve as a table, barracks, shelves for storage of things and actually the window sill, and chairs can be moved around the loggia depending on where they are most needed now. Space under the windowsill can be used to store things, equipped with shelves or drawers.


If you plan to install boxes, lockers, bedside tables or even a built-in wardrobe in a loggia, it is better give preference to models with sliding doors, this will save space. In the glassed-in loggia doors can be replaced with bamboo blinds or Roman curtains - beautifully and functionally.
Also for the loggia is excellent corner furniture, which saves space. Do not be afraid to put cabinets in the loggia to the ceiling: on the upper shelves you can store things that you rarely use.
It is desirable that the furniture in the loggia was multifunctional. For example, if you want to put in a loggiasofa, it is worth giving preference to the sofa-chest, the seat of which is simultaneously a reclining lid, allowing you to get to the hidden treasure in the depths of an unusual sofa. You can, of course, buy a sofa with drawers in the base, but a chest in a narrow loggia will be much more practical.
Often loggia furniture has to be made to order: not always it turns out to choose the finishedfurniture according to the conceived interior design, which allows to rationally use every square centimeter of precious area. In this case, we advise you to first draw a loggia plan with the desired furniture, and then call specialists who will make the necessary measurements and recommend the optimal solution.
It is advisable to choose for a loggia simple and laconic furniture in a minimalist style: ornate furniture with an abundance of jewelry visuallyoverloads the space and makes the small loggia seem even smaller. Furniture of light colors for a loggia is preferable, as it does not "eat up" space. You should choose furniture from materials that are resistant to moisture, burnout and temperature jumps.
