Parasitic Room Addition - Urban Tree House Concept Attaches To The Outside Of The Building (GALLERY)

Apartment dwellers no longer have to face the dilemma of giving up their beloved apartment when they have outgrown it.  They can just add on!  A room addition from Convertible City, known as the Rucksack House, is a new option.  A room sized cube, it can be suspended on the outside of existing buildings via steel cables to provide additional living or working space.  The unit includes fold-down furniture, such as a desk, shelves, and a place to sleep or read.  When stowed, the furniture is held in place by hidden magnets. And for those with no fear of heights, it also includes a window in the floor to look down on the activity below.
