Just stay at home and enjoy your time in your own four walls - who needs to travel to Italy, take a plane trip or even a trip around the world when you can spend your vacation at home on your balcony? But only with the right balcony lighting.

Brunching outside on the balcony, letting the sun's rays shine on your face during the day and ending the evening with a glass of red wine in the fresh air - sounds just like a vacation. The only thing is that you don't have to travel far to do it, you can treat yourself to a little time out on the balcony every day. We'll show you how to make the evening hours particularly relaxing and romantic, just like on vacation, with the help of balcony lighting, which creates the right mood and a wonderful atmosphere.

Planning balcony lighting

First of all, all balcony lighting should be carefully planned, as not every lamp is suitable for every balcony.

The main thing to consider here is whether there is a power connection or whether this is only available in the house or apartment. In principle, it would be possible to run a cable from inside to outside, but this would be rather impractical and closing the door would only be possible by unplugging the balcony lamp. To avoid this, you should either install a socket on your balcony, if this is not already available, or use Akku and solar balcony lighting.

Where should you place your light?

As a general rule, balcony lights need to be arranged well so as not to overload the small outdoor area with lighting - a wall light is therefore usually sufficient as the main light source. This can then be combined with another balcony lamp, whereby a supplementary table lamp is highly recommended for reading, for example.

A pleasant atmosphere and the right flair can then be achieved with indirect balcony lighting, which is not only possible with balcony fairy lights or decorative lamps, but also wall lamps such as the s.luce Ixa can create great effects with adjustable light beams.

If you have a covered balcony, you can of course also use pendant or ceiling lights , which also function very well as the main light source. If the balcony also offers a lot of open space, you can also opt for floor or floor lamps as a supplement. Floor spots or spotlights can also be used to beautifully illuminate plants, decorative elements or the balustrade.

Decorative lights and fairy lights as balcony lighting

Indirect lighting is particularly popular on balconies, as it manages to set the scene for the small outdoor area and ensures pure coziness.

Balcony fairy lights are the epitome of romance, as they are reminiscent of the twinkling stars and make every dinner on the balcony feel like a candlelight dinner. They are also particularly practical as they can be used almost indefinitely.

You can hang fairy lights from your balcony, attach them to the wall or parapet or simply wrap them around a shelf or decorative item. Outdoor decorative lights can also be used perfectly as balcony lighting, as lanterns, globe lamps or lanterns also create an atmospheric ambience.
