Summer Balcony Refresh Design

A couple weeks ago on instagram, I mentioned the fun new project that I have planned with a BTC version of a porch swing.

I have quite literally been dreaming of a porch swing/balcony sofa for at least 2 years now. We don’t exactly have the biggest balcony and it doesn’t have any hooks nor can we drill into the ceiling because that is technically owned by the unit above ours. So after many hours of googling a solution that may be on the market, I have decided to instead build a custom seat just for us. Here are my requirements:
​
  1. Comfortable
  2. Tall enough to see over the railing when sitting (but still safe height)
  3. Cute and modern look
  4. Relatively easy to build
  5. Still able to fit the rest of the balcony furniture on the deck (this part may prove to be the trickiest)
 
I drew up the plans for the glider bench and I’m pretty excited for how it will turn out. I’m still debating on whether or not to make it a glider chair. I like the idea of it rocking but the foundation will take up space that we could use for storage instead. I’d love to hear what you guys think. Glider or no glider?
 
As I got into the design of the chair, I realized lots of other ways I could refresh the balcony at the same time. 
Here are a few places I’ve been getting inspiration from.

Although, I won’t be able to start work on this one for a while, I’m excited to keep finalizing plans and get your feedback along the way. Here are the two concept designs I've come up with so far. Which one is your favorite?
