julien berthier: balcon additionnel

‘balcon additionnel’ by julien berthier, 2008 (polyester resin, steel, paint)

‘balcon additionnel’ is an architectural intervention by french artist julien berthier that places a small balcony
on a series of different buildings. the project is actually a service which will hoist the balcony up to the building
from a boom-truck on the ground. the balcony is permanently attached to the truck, allowing it to be quickly
fitted and then removed. the balcony is made from plastic resin, steel and paint and designed to mimic
a haussmann-style balcony found in paris. this traditional style design is contrasted by placing it against
buildings of all different architectural styles.
