  The negative comments are obviously from people in locations where your money buys you a lot of house. Here in NYC, many condo and co-op building don't allow balcony additions. This is much more likely to be approved by those boards since it is not a permanent outside structure. I'm also assuming that this must be the case opin many cities throughout the world with expensive real estate. Fabulous idea!

  After having read a number of negative comments i have to say this is a solution to an architectural problem i had.
  
  my client wanted a balcony to his new house. The simplest solution was a conventional balcony- however this would have broken the front facade i had in mind. I talk about proportions hear- very important to a good designer- not everyone is lucky enough to have a designer who would go a step further to get it just right.
  
  having said this, i feel alot better.

  I could see the use of this in San Francisco when there are limited days when a balcony can be used. This would allow some extra space without having to keep the bird poop off it weekly.

  I think its great! A LOT less cleaning from the weather. Nobody i know sits on their balcony EVERY day, and excellent for when smoking friends come over for parties and such - pop out the balcony and they can smoke outside without leaving the festivities.

  This has to be the most pointless use of building material ever. Not only does it underthink the possibility of over-engineering, but I challenge to ask: In what way does anyone find this useful and/or convenient?

  I'm not sure I understand the benefit of this system. What are its advantages? Disadvantages?

  why would you want the balcony to extend in when not in use? how does this feature help us. Building in all the pneumatics for a pure gimmic.does this fall under design at all. not to mention you call it the hottest piece of blog fodder.

  ok...but why would you EVER put it in! This is a cool idea, but when you think about it, this space would always be best kept outside.

  So, if I want any outdoor plants, I have to have my room constantly exposed to the elements? This idea is ridiculous. What exactly is the advantage over conventional balconies? It costs more and is significantly less useful.

  I'm having a hard time figuring out why. I really can't see the benefit of this. Besides the coolness factor, I see this as more of a burden.
