Danish window company Velux has designed a roof window that opens up and transforms into a small balcony. The Velux Cabrio brings the outside world into loft and attic spaces with a design that can go from balcony to closed window while it takes to open/close a traditional window.
The window comes in various finishes and offers an exciting alternative to ‘dormers.’ The window opens in two sections, so if you want to let in fresh air without the balcony, you could also open the top part of the window. The integrated banister railings automatically appear when the lower window is opened, and the system could even be used as an emergency fire exit.
The roof window balcony system will only work in roof pitches between 35 and 53 degrees. For more product information and specs, check out the official Velux site.
