Choosing the right furniture for your balcony, patio, or small urban yard starts with precise measurements. First, clear the area completely. Using a metal tape measure, record the length and width of the entire space. Next, measure all permanent fixtures: note the height, width, and depth of railings, steps, door swing arcs, and any built-in planters. Don't forget to measure overhead for awnings or low-hanging features. Create a simple scale drawing on graph paper, marking these immovable objects. This is your "obstruction map." Before shopping, decide on the primary use (dining, lounging) and traffic flow needed. When you have furniture in mind, note its listed dimensions and use newspaper or painter's tape to mock up its footprint on your actual space. Leave at least 60-75cm (24-30 inches) for walkways. Always double-check door or gate widths to ensure the furniture can be delivered. This proactive measuring prevents costly returns and creates a harmonious, functional outdoor retreat.
How do I measure my space to make sure the urban outdoor furniture I pick will actually fit?
