Looking out the window is one thing, but being outside and taking in the fresh air is another, especially after a long day in the office. Having a balcony to go out onto every night, is every girl's dream-and Velux has made it possible. The company has just released a window that can be converted into a balcony in a matter of seconds!

The Velux Cabrio Balcony can be added to any skylight, opening it into a spot for lounging al fresco. In order to turn your window into a balcony you will have to get the Cabrio installed, which will cost around $5,350-$5,950 for a new skylight and $4,450-$4,850 for a replacement skylight. But that's a small price to pay for an added miniature terrace, right?

Plus, the interior of the window has a beautiful pine finish that comes with a clear water-based lacquer, to ensure that the wood is protected against any dirt and moisture.

All of the Velux windows come with a gray aluminum cover for the exterior. But if gray aluminum isn't your style, don't worry, you can choose from: copper, titanium, zinc, and colored aluminum.

One customer who works in interior design (read: knows her stuff!) left a review saying, "We recently installed this product into a client's home in Perth, Western Australia. It was a fantastic choice. The client's split level dining/lounge had a very dark area on the upper level and this Velux roof window has created an entirely new atmosphere. The client is rapt and so are we!"

It's clear that this window gets a big stamp of approval.
