Ideas for an aesthetic privacy on the balcony

Reed mats are readily available in stores and can be decorated decoratively with shells, pine cones or small driftwood pieces.

Subsequently, thin, flexible branches are passed layer by layer in front of and behind the branches to finally obtain an opaque wall.
