A Window for City Dwellers Who Still Want to Gaze at the Sky

“More Sky,” a project by Argentinian-born, Brooklyn-based industrial designer Aldana Ferrer Garcia, envisions a world in which mini city apartments are just a little bit bigger. No, no pop-up housing involved here: Ferrer Garcia’s concept involves “window niches” into which the cramped city dwellers can crawl for a broader peek at the sky.

The windows can fit into standard window settings, and are totally up to code in Ferrer Garcia’s home borough. The “awning niche” gives users a better perch from which to gaze out on the street; the “casement niche” provides panoramic views of the entire neighborhood; and the “hopper niche” invites users to lie down and enjoy an extended view of the sky.
