A veranda is a great way to organize an additional room in the country or in a private house. Do not forget that this is a kind of “visiting card” of the whole house: guests see the design of the veranda, then go inside the house. Before decorating the veranda, you need to choose whether your extension will be open or you decide to completely close it and make a cozy place with a gorgeous view from the window. This choice imposes some restrictions on the choice of the necessary furniture and design in general..

The main differences between two similar concepts: terrace and veranda
The veranda can be either a closed or an open building with any type of roof, while it must be part of the house. The terrace is located outside the main building, therefore the design of the terrace should be planned initially. When building a terrace, an elevated base is additionally created, often at a certain height from the ground. Must be fenced, otherwise it will be considered an open area outside the house.
The veranda with the house has a common foundation, which distinguishes it from all other types of additional structures. The advantage is that it can be built together with the house or erected as an additional structure. Often, verandas are created of a closed type, allowing you to design it even as a separate room, especially important in the summer..
To create a good view, choose a large space, while windows can be from 2-3 sides. The porch should not be confused with the veranda, because the roof and walls are absent or they do not border the main building. Do you want to create a full-fledged room, like in a private house? Insulate and completely close the extension, decorate it in the desired style and arrange functional furniture.

How terraces and verandas are divided?
Verandas can be closed or open. To save time, it is worth planning the structure before constructing the main building. If the foundation is solid, the level of risk of cracks on the walls of the additional building will be significantly reduced. The extension must be documented along with the plan, as part of a private house or summer cottage. If you decide to create a veranda after the construction of the main building, be prepared to pay additional money to complete the entire package of documents. Exterior decoration should be as similar as possible or made in the same style as the whole house.

The style must be chosen the same as in which the house was decorated or be as similar to it as possible.

Materials (edit)
Remember the basic rule: no artificial materials, everything must be natural. If you have a lot of space, you can make an additional wall of stone, which will resemble a loft. The floors are decorated using porcelain stoneware – a wear-resistant material that can last for a long period of time, while it requires a minimum of effort to maintain. It is best to use panoramic glazing that allows light to pass through, illuminating the plants.
Advice! Install glass sliding doors that allow freshness to come in at a certain moment or, on the contrary, protect from rain.
The palette should be natural in order to maintain the overall atmosphere. Close to natural colors are suitable for decoration: green, brown and terracotta.

Layout
Choose based on the purpose of the veranda: you can create both a small cozy place to relax and a full-fledged dining room, hallway or living room. If you are not going to create a kitchen from an extension, it is enough to purchase a designer table and light chairs so that you can sometimes chat over a cup of tea. You can cook barbecue, then you need a barbecue.
If you need a veranda for country feasts with a huge number of friends and relatives, then the planning must be carried out taking into account all the rules.

Space around the main room
The veranda should be in the same style with the surrounding landscape. If there is a garden, it should organically continue the style of the extension. For example, you choose the English style for your veranda, make sure that the garden is in the same style. It can be organically combined with other areas surrounding the house:
-
create your own greenhouse or a small winter garden right in the annex;
-
a playground for children to have fun while adults are busy with their own business;
-
you can build a bathhouse and combine it with a veranda: take a steam bath, then ate barbecue.

Should I add plants?
Summer in Russia is incredibly hot, you can save yourself from this not only with curtains and curtains, but also by planting plants. Vertical landscaping is ideal for an open veranda to cover existing openings. Our climate is favorable for various climbing plants, so you can give your veranda an incredible appearance and at the same time escape from the sun without additional cash costs..
