misunderstanding 1: seal the balcony at will
common mistakes: close the balcony and transform it into a kitchen, which can save space. However, the space is large, and the ventilated living room without balcony becomes difficult to ventilate, and the lighting degree becomes worse. More importantly, the smoke from the closed balcony to the kitchen is difficult to disperse.
