Teak Heritage Teak deck with a jaali Balcony Design
Indian craft detailing on a contemporary frame — jaali, cane, inlay and hand-finished brass, used sparingly. A balcony fails on drainage, sun and wind before it fails on styling. We check the slab fall and the exposure, then build something that survives a monsoon.

Balcony questions
What flooring survives on an open balcony?
Anti-skid porcelain, natural stone or composite decking on pedestals. Avoid solid timber unless it is teak or a hardwood rated for exterior use, and never lay laminate outside.
Will decking block the drain?
Not if it is laid on adjustable pedestals with the original slab fall untouched and a removable section over the outlet. Decking glued directly to the slab is the version that floods.
How do I get privacy without losing light?
A perforated metal screen, a timber jaali, or a planted trellis. All three cut sightlines while letting air and diffuse light through — solid screens make the room behind dark.
Can a balcony be enclosed?
Structurally it is usually possible with a sliding glazed system, but it often needs housing-society and municipal approval, and it can affect the building's fire strategy. Check before you design.
