More Sky: a system that transforms your windows into a small balcony

If you are not too rich and live in a city, one of the problems you probably face is to find an appartment with enough space and a balcony. Most people don’t have access to a decent view of the sky from their home, and it’s kind of depressing when you think about it a little.

More Sky is a window system that was designed with the sole purpose of fixing this issue. This clever design allows you to “unfold” your window and use it as a seat with a view of the sky above your head. It was thought and designed by Aldana Ferrer Garcia, an Argentinian architect.

The idea is obviously clever and apparently very well-designed, but I’d still give it a name like “leap of faith” and I’m not sure I would be willing to try it out, looks a bit too risky to me.
