One of my requirements or wherever I live is having an outdoor space, even if it's a tiny Juliet balcony. The smallest of balconies can provide a relaxing space where you can head out and get your daily dose of Vitamin D. If you have one and you're not using it, take a good look and figure out why. Maybe all you need to do is add a small cushion to your plastic chair, find a way to provide some shade, or add a tiny table where you can set down your lemonade. Here is some advice for making your balcony or deck a place you'll want to spend quality time.
2. Think comfort. With all of the new weather-resistant fabrics like Sunbrella on the market today, you can make your furniture cushy.
