Minimalist balcony chairs and table: versatility and durability
When we think minimalist, we have the unfortunate habit of believing that our balcony furniture will lack character. However, this style responds above all to the challenges of versatility and durability.
It is not impossible that your balcony chairs and tables will follow you when you move. And if you invest in recognized, quality brands, you will undoubtedly enjoy changing your balcony decor, without having to change its elements too often!
It is in this perspective of convenience that the minimalist style is located. Straight, classic lines that don’t forget to stand out, but which can adapt to all your arrangements.
Balcony chairs: our suggestions
Milano dining chair Collection by Cabana Coast. The curve knows how to be sober, as on this balcony chair, where it elegantly dresses the arms, without compromising on the seat – which exudes comfort – and on support, skilfully supported by a sought-after crosspiece on the back.
Millcroft dining chair Collection by Cabana Coast. Made from aluminum, this balcony chair exudes practicality and confidence. With a solid and square design, it plays on a subtle contrast of material – structure versus fabric – and does not forget to offer a seat that is always very comfortable.
Let’s start with the chairs. Robust and comfortable, they can be reminiscent of interior models. And as the other popular trend places a lot of emphasis on transposing the kitchen outdoors, you will be in tune!
The minimalist/classic style can also be declined with modern components, which energize the whole ensemble without distorting the desired harmony. To do this, we will focus in particular on the inclination of the backrest which will approach the “lounge” style which is very popular at the moment, and a thin seat – more current – but still versatile.
We are talking about durability of style, but we will also look for reliable durability in the face of bad weather. Even on a balcony, tables and chairs can suffer from wind, rain and dust. With materials such as aluminum, you are banking on balcony furniture that is resistant and easily movable.
Balcony tables: options available
Monaco Collection: 36″ round dining table from Cabana Coast. Behind its familiar appearance, this balcony table hides a refined audacity, which is reflected in its curved and openwork legs, the finesse of its top – a detail that is both modern and graceful – and its beautiful surface, perfect for meals on the go or for a relaxed drink.
Millcroft collection 36″ dinner table from Cabana Coast. Classic, yes, but certainly effective! We fell in love with this balcony table with its presentation space as large as it is practical.

On the table side, we continue with convenience and ease of arrangement with geometric and balanced shapes. Their confident design is the key to giving pep to your balcony, especially if you choose dark pieces, perfect for contrasting with relatively sober balcony decor.
What if you aspire to combine warmth and classic? No problem, since the curves stand out, even in a more traditional look. Nothing is more effective for adding volume to the famous classic style.
You will have understood: there is nothing less boring than the classic style! Behind its conventional scents at first glance hide details of shapes and materials: imposing appearance, captivating and durable material, geometric or rounded lines. Perfect to make you stand out without any lack of taste.
Bohemian spirit: reinvent your balcony with textured balcony furniture

Trinity Collection dining chair by Ratana. Nothing will be more unique than a corded backrest that remains pleasant for the back, and stunning in a decor. Proof ? This model for balconies which combines worked design with white tone as a safe bet.
The bohemian style is also noticed in the trends of the year. Just like the classic, he knows how to play on timelessness, and put a certain asset on his side, by pushing originality a little further. Always in accessible layouts and nuances, it has the power to respond to your desire to escape, without the risk of weariness!
Recognizable among thousands, the bohemian style has been reflected in recent seasons by braided rope patterns, contrasted by a dark metal base – usually aluminum – or rattan. The rope can recall the sea, the boats and ultimately, bring a seaside atmosphere, very appropriate for summer days.
Balcony furniture that is part of this trend remains robust and high quality. And since they draw their finish from the vintage charm of decades past, you can have a retro touch for a beautiful mix of genres.
Round shapes are also popular in the bohemian style, because they reflect softness, organicity and authenticity, highly sought-after characteristics.
The bohemian spirit also means warm tones, which evoke sand and a change of scenery. How to adopt this emotion, without falling into excess? By opting for beige. More marked than white and warmer than black, it comes in different shades more or less pronounced on cushions, trays and structures. The result? A calming effect that calls for both meditation and exploration. And since the return to nature requires colorful and ambitious designs, you will not find better than this shade to make your flowers and plants stand out.
