Balcony Visualiser

What the Visualiser Can Do

The Balcony Visualiser has been created to help architects, engineers, and developers understand both appearance and technical connection in one easy-to-use space.

You can:

View in 3D: Rotate, zoom, and explore a photorealistic balcony model with lifelike detail.
Choose your finishes: Experiment with decking options, soffit types, and balustrade systems to visualise the end result.
Select connection methods: Switch between different ways of attaching balconies to the building structure – ideal for assessing suitability for different frame types.
View sections through: Instantly reveal a technical section that clearly demonstrates how the balcony interfaces with the slab or façade.
Download images: Export both the photorealistic view and the section-through diagram for design documentation or planning submissions.

This dual-view experience – combining beauty and buildability – helps streamline early design decisions and keeps your balcony design aligned with both aesthetic and technical requirements.

Designed for Simplicity and Clarity

Unlike traditional configurators that can feel complex or overloaded with options, Sapphire’s Visualiser simplifies the process.

The layout is intuitive and uncluttered, with guided configuration steps that show you how each element fits together — from slab connection to balustrade detailing.
Each change you make updates instantly, letting you test different ideas quickly without the need for separate CAD drawings or software installations.

For architects and specifiers, it’s a visualisation and learning tool in one — giving you the confidence to specify Glide-On balconies accurately and efficiently.

What Are The Practical Applications?

The Balcony Visualiser is not just a design aid; it’s a professional resource.

You can use your configured balcony views to:

Support planning applications with photorealistic visuals.
Enhance design presentations with accurate and realistic balcony imagery.
Communicate connection details clearly to project teams and structural consultants.
Demonstrate compliance intent by showing how offsite-manufactured balconies integrate safely and efficiently with the building structure.

Who Is It For?

Architects – Visualise design intent and detailing in minutes.
Developers – See how finishes and designs enhance kerb appeal and consistency.
Engineers and Contractors – Review the balcony’s interface with the structure before detailed design.
Consultants and Planners – Use clear visuals to illustrate balcony integration and design quality.

How Do We Make The Balcony Journey Simple?

Sapphire makes the balcony journey simple by making it unique to you. We ask you three simple questions to define your key aspirations, crucial constraints and finally how we could streamline your project by innovation, design, experience and more.
