Urban Balcony

The ideal place for working, reading, eating or even a practical laundry corner: your multitasking balcony thanks to Unopiù.

Unopiù introduces Urban Balcony, a brand-new structure in iroko wood, available with several fittings, which allows to utterly live your balconies and terraces in any occasion.

Urban Balcony, designed thanks to the collaboration of Meneghello Paolelli Associati, is a modular, versatile, flexible and customizable system which interprets the urban living under a new quality perspective, allowing to create with few modular elements different functional spaces like a laundry area, a corner to harbour plants and flowers, a working or studying place.

The balcony is an ancient roots architectural element which has inspired so many artists and writers: for instance, the renowned Francisco Goya’s painting “Majas on a balcony”, or it has even become a legendary place through William Shakespeare’s theatre. In Italo Calvino literary production, the balcony has a privileged position from which to observe things of life: the story, based on real facts or not, is plenty of balconies with a key role, from an aesthetic or symbolic point of view.

With Urban Balcony by Unopiù, all balconies and terraces can become the main characters of a new living project proposal: small outdoor spaces redefine themselves and rearrange themselves to become an extension of home interiors.

“The city lives and the public and private areas evolve. There is a transformation in the use of areas and Urban Balcony understands this change by creating new multiple solutions of micro-furnishings for a better use of city balconies or small outdoor areas. Urban Balcony is a system which can be configured for modern terraces. Eating, reading, studying, working, hanging out washing, looking after plants and flowers, relaxing: these are just a few of the things one can do in this “renewed” space that, however small it might be, is of truly great value.” Meneghello Paolelli Associates

Urban Balcony can be fixed either to ceilings or walls providing support for a series of accessories in white aluminium: flowerboxes, pots, cupboards, shelves, worktops, clotheslines, screens and shades.
