Improving Your Apartment’s Patio, Part 1

Whether you’ve been in your current apartment for a while or you’ve recently moved into one of our luxury apartments, you’re probably wondering how you can improve your space in a fun and unique way. One of the most interesting areas of any apartment is the patio, and in today’s post, we’ll provide you with three ways that you can make the most of your apartment’s patio. Pelican Bluff Apartments are more than just another place to stay. Our Windsor apartment complex offers luxury living and unbeatable views for an affordable price — contact us today or come by our office for a free tour!

find unique flooring

Even in our luxury apartments, you may find yourself wanting a different material on your balcony floor. Remodeling your apartment is never an option if you’re renting, but purchasing new tile flooring to cover your apartment’s patio can give you the same effect at a much cheaper price. Stop by a home improvement store and take a look at their tile flooring options. You can generally find wood panels, faux-wood panels, tile flooring, and even fake grass to place on your deck.

invest in lighting

Whether you enjoy sitting outside by yourself in the evenings or you typically have a few people over each weekend, it’s important that your balcony is properly lit. One of the best ways to combine functionality and style is by investing in outdoor lighting that matches your tastes and needs. You can find beautiful LED lights and lamps for a reasonable price at nearly any home improvement store, and we can almost guarantee that you’ll be impressed with the atmosphere they create on a warm summer night.

maximize your privacy

Even though our luxury apartments provide you with much more privacy than a typical apartment, you may find yourself wanting even more privacy on your patio. Privacy panels are a fantastic way of blocking the eyes of your neighbors and anyone who may be passing by, and they can be purchased in a variety of styles that won’t detract from the atmosphere of your apartment. If you’re looking for something more natural, then you should consider creating a small garden space near the edge of your patio. While this suggestion is easier to carry out during the summer, it provides you with a way of adding beauty to your apartment’s patio while also improving your privacy. Some apartment owners find that caring for plants year-round is a burden, but fake plants can provide just as much beauty without any of the maintenance associated with traditional gardens. As an added bonus, you’ll never have to wait for them to grow!

We hope that these tips will help you make the most of your patio. Stay tuned for future posts in which we’ll continue to provide you with ways to improve your patio.
