Projecting Balconies

Projecting balconies, often known as ‘cantilever balconies’, are essentially platforms added to a building which cantilever off of the main building structure and allow residents to step out onto a platform protected by a perimeter balustrade.

This type of balcony provides benefits both to the interior and exterior of an apartment. On the inside it adds extra floor space and brings the outside in, so helping to make a compact living area more light and airy. It also offers residents instant access to their own private outdoor space, which is often limited in high-rise city apartments. Projecting balconies can make all the difference to the finished building by creating the architectural signature that sets one building apart from the ordinary.
