Balcony Inspiration

One thing I love about my first little place, is the balcony that is off my bedroom. At the moment I can't use it - a) because it looks super ugly and b) it is unsafe and basically needs to ripped down and built again. So I have started to get my inspiration together for the look and feel of it.

As it looks before any renovations started - revolting



As it leads off from my bedroom where the colour scheme is simple grey and white I want to extend this out onto the balcony and give it a real Hamptons feel. As I live in a complex the trellis must stay, but if it is painted fresh, crisp white it should look fine. I want to replace the "pink" decking with beautiful silvery grey boards and find a way to cover the airconditioning unit.

I want to use the space to sit out on a late morning where I can put my feet up with my laptop or reading a magazine or book.
