Having a terrace is an added value, but is it also an added value in winter ? Most of the time it is assumed that the terrace only has value in summer. But this is more than a gross error that can be made. In fact, the terrace can be a valid ally in the colder months. Both in terms of design but also in terms of utility. However, not everyone is able to make the most of the terrace area’s potential. Especially when the coldest season approaches. So there’s no point in getting lost in chitchat. As you can understand, today’s mini guide is based on this. How to make the terrace attractive in winter, in the days of Covid. So, if you are ready, we can get started!
We start from the assumption that size matters but up to a certain point. It is not necessary to enjoy large spaces. The important thing is to know how to manage them in the best possible way. If you do not have certain fortunes, we advise you to avoid making the area heavier. It would be impractical. Especially in critical periods where distance is the greatest safety. So, golden rule: little space, few objects and vice versa.
It is advisable to stay indoors when wintering. Even when you have a wonderful outdoor space. How can you use a terrace even in the coldest period ? There are mainly two solutions. Or make an important investment and create a glass structure to enjoy the panoramic view. Or create a prefabricated structure simply covered with a transparent sheet. In both cases, these are very valid solutions that will give your terrace a new life in winter. And above all, you will not give up the beauty of being outdoors but sheltered!
As far as the interiors are concerned, you know, you can indulge yourself. But it is necessary to underline some shrewdness to have. When you choose to furnish interiors, you have to deal with the weather and especially the temperatures. If you have the misfortune to live in particularly humid environments, avoid wood. Rather opt for plastic or other materials that are less subject to wear and tear. In other cases, you can choose between various options. Tip: look for materials that are easy to clean. In Covid time, it is very important to take care of this too!
Can the colours be binding for the change of season to be made on your terrace in winter? Actually, yes. For this reason, we advise you to opt for a neutral colour selection. Play with the colours using the accessories. For the rest, stay on quiet shades, if you can define them that way.
So, are you ready to turn your terrace upside down in winter too? For any changes to other parts of the house, we recommend only one thing: stay updated on our Realigro portal. Every day you will find a lot of news that will update you on the real estate world!
