Swiss-based minimalist windows manufacturer Vitrocsa has created a revolutionary glass window design that can turn sharp angles and corners, leaving an entire area of a room open.

Business Insider describes the Vitrocsa ‘turntable corner window system’ as a design that runs on a “rolling system that eliminates the need for bulky rails.”

The panels, which are very sturdy, can hide into walls to completely open up a space in any room, according to Peruvian newspaper El Comercio. A panel can measure up to 3 metres.

Available in five continents, the window system is “dedicated to transparency,” a fundamental technical principle envisioned by a design team supervised by company founder Eric Joray.

Watch this demonstration video below to see how the technology works.
