Abstract

It’s an element added to the body of the building, a sort of elevated platform beyond the outer wall boundary. Balcony is used as extensions for the indoor living space that can be attached to any of the room of a house and it can also connect two or more spaces, but in any case, you have to go through the room(s) to reach the balcony. In many houses, the balcony is meant to provide both sunshine and shade. In hot countries a balcony allows a greater circulation of air inside the building therefore it is open and ventilated, while in a cold climate usually it is sealed and glazed.
