Window or balcony, madam?

Bloomframe® is the innovative window that morphs magically into a balcony at the touch of a button. This revolutionary and multi-award winning design is now in production and it is expected that the first project will be realised in Toulouse in France in the beginning of next year. After evaluation of this project the balcony will be available throughout Europe and in the UK.

The product’s creators, Amsterdam-based Hofman Dujardin Architects, expect the Bloomframe® balcony could soon become a familiar element of the modern cityscape as more architects, developers and builders realise its considerable functional and aesthetic benefits.

The balcony offers inhabitants of apartments, offices and hotels the ultimate flexible living environment - an insulated picture window one minute and a fresh, open balcony the next, cleverly adding vital space to compact interiors and bringing the outdoors in.

The unique balcony is engineered by Dutch manufacturer Hurks geveltechniek and consists of tough all-weather materials controlled by a smooth electronic system. Its dimensions, colour and materials are all fully adaptable and can be custom-designed to complement the façades of new and existing buildings.
