DIY balcony furniture: A touch of individuality by Sylvio

Do you dream of turning your balcony into an oasis of creativity and design? Then be inspired by Sylvio's masterpiece: a unique combination of an engine piston table with matching hub chairs. This project takes DIY furniture to a new level and shows how you can create your own balcony furniture with a little imagination and craftsmanship.

Creative balcony furniture made of multiplex

The base of this extraordinary balcony furniture comes from TOSIZE.pt, where the wood was sawn to size precisely. Sylvio has taken this foundation and created true works of art from it. The engine piston table is characterized by its robust design, which is based on an automobile piston, while the comfortable hub chairs, seemingly weightless, take up the theme of mobility and dynamism.

The charm of homemade

In addition to customization, making your own furniture also offers the flexibility to adapt dimensions and materials exactly to your own wishes and needs. Sylvio has made the most of this to create a balcony furniture that fits perfectly into his outdoor design. In addition, it is often more budget-friendly to do it yourself rather than buying ready-made furniture and at the same time gives an incomparable feeling of pride.

Color and form in perfection

The warm wood tone of the furniture harmonizes wonderfully with the vibrant colors of the balcony. The shape of the chairs and the table creates an organic yet modern look. Special details, such as the integrated joints and chains, make these pieces of furniture a remarkable highlight.

Last but not least: Choosing the right wood

Multiplex Waterproof B/BB in thicknesses from 4 mm to 25 mm was the wood of choice for Sylvio's project. Each thickness has its own advantages, for example in terms of workability and appearance. These waterproof multiplex panels are ideal for outdoor use and provide a durable base for Sylvio's balcony furniture.

Multiplex Waterproof B/BB 4 mm

The 4 mm thick multiplex board is ideal for fine, detailed work and is also surprisingly stable. It gives the furniture a delicate elegance.

Multiplex Waterproof B/BB 12 mm

With a thickness of 12 mm, this multiplex offers a good balance between robustness and weight, making the furniture stable but not too heavy.

Multiplex Waterproof B/BB 18 mm

The 18 mm variant is the ideal choice for load-bearing elements that require a higher load-bearing capacity and gives the furniture structure and strength.
