Terraces are an extension of a home. Instead of neglecting the space, how about sprucing it up to make it look magazine-worthy like the rest of your home? In this ideabook, we’ve put together 16 different professionally designed terraces from which you can copy one that is perfect for your home.

​1. Outdoor breakfast area

Create a cosy area on the terrace outside the dining area or kitchen with a green wall for privacy, wooden flooring planks and weatherproof rattan furniture. You can step out for a cup of tea in the morning or have breakfast outdoors.

2. Privacy wall that adds a natural vibe

Use stone cladding on a privacy wall to introduce a lovely natural element that matches with the greenery on the terrace.

3. Rustic look with stone flooring and a bamboo roof

Use stone flooring with bright coloured chairs and a bamboo roof that filters the sunlight to paint a pretty picture!

4. Stylish pergola

Nothing beats the elegance of a pergola on the roof and the play of light and shadow that it brings with it.

5. Add a flower border

Make a lovely flower border along the edge of the terrace to introduce a charming burst of colour that makes the area stunning.

6. Elegant white and black

Play with the spectacular contrast that black-and-white décor offers by using it on the floor, furniture and accessories to make the terrace eye-catching.

7. Sculpted roof and enchanting lighting

Create a unique sculpted roof that has a Mediterranean feel. Decorate with tile art and gorgeous lighting to create an area that is magical at night.

8. Stunning feature wall with traditional art

In a traditional home, carry through the décor theme to the outdoors by painting the terrace wall with a lovely piece of folk art.

9. Cosy sit-out with greenery and artistic lighting

On a small apartment terrace, create a cosy seating area with a small lawn, stepping stones, greenery and diffused lighting to enjoy the outdoors.

10. How about a pool on the terrace?

Of course, nothing is more relaxing than a water feature. A small swimming pool, waterfall or fountain on the terrace can elevate its look.

11. Relaxing wooden deck with lounge chairs

For a tiny terrace, adding wooden deck flooring, a couple of relaxing lounge chairs and some potted plants are all it takes to create a stylish area.

12. Sophisticated planter boxes

Make a second living room on the terrace that can be used to enjoy the sunshine when the weather is good.

14. A lush green wall

If there’s no space for anything else, decorate the wall with small planters to add a lovely natural feature to the terrace.

15. Mediterranean blue and white

A classic combination for terraces, use blue and white furniture and accessories to create a relaxing area that is reminiscent of the Mediterranean.

16. A pretty hammock

In addition to making the area look pretty, hanging a lovely white hammock on a small terrace is perfect for relaxing on Sundays.
