Living in the city has its advantages and disadvantages. Comfort and easy access to any area are always accompanied by heavy traffic, fumes, pollution, and intense noise. In such a landscape, we fully feel the lack of a garden or green space where we can retreat at the end of the day.
However, this is possible if we have some space on the terrace. We will thus be able to create a green space that disconnects us and delights the atmosphere. Here are some ideas for decorating the terrace in an urban style.
Start by planting or buying herbs and seasonal plants. Arrange a pavement and a few brick structures for planting shrubs, such as lemon or oleander. Hanging plants are ideal for decorating the terrace and creating a little intimacy.
The flower popularly called "Hand of Mary" has an inviting and delicate scent and will be perfect to grow on the terrace.
Any kind of ornamental shrubs are suitable for creating abundance and the impression of an urban jungle. Ficus, lilac for colors and smell, Japanese rose are just a few of the species we recommend. Add beautifully colored plants like carnations, begonias, chrysanthemums or even a few pots of lavender which will keep unwanted insects away.
Choose light furniture with woven structures or for a vintage look, look for those made of wrought iron. The table and chairs are the most important pieces of furniture on a terrace. You can add a swing or more if space allows. Consider integrating some umbrellas or a pergola to protect yourself from excessive sunlight during the summer.
And a white bench will fit perfectly into the terrace space.
