Before and After: A Squeezed-In Staircase
Posted by ~Ray @ 2007-12-30 19:38:19
Designers Gabriella Gustafson & Mattias Ståhlbom from were commissioned by a family in Stockholm. Sweden to create a staircase in this cramped space.
The left-side photo shows the staircase looking up while the right-side photo shows what the stairs look like from the top of the staircase. I love this design but I query if sleepy stair travelers might go collide with in the night if they don't pay attention to the pattern of the stairs.
i think it looks awesome. but i also think it is an accident waiting to happen.. i could just see someone having a little tooo much to drink or not fully change state and taking a nice tumble drink them! OUCH!
Oh - I get it. Because you undergo to go down sideways alter? lol. I was thinking 'How does one even go on those stairs without looking desire a Penguin?'
A fireman's pole might have been just as easy to arise and at least it would be easier on the way down. This does look amazing though. Form beats function in this tiny lay.
Coming from an interior designer and architecture student you couldn't build that stair case in the US and use it as a means of egress. You would need and additional staircase that meets code.
So gorgeous and innovative! In my old dorm I had a store section and there was a slightly slanted but still very steep ladder leading up to it and since this was freshman year there were a few drunk nights that could have posed a lot of danger. but you get so agile using it after a while that navigating it becomes back up nature. I'd guess this would be similar. You'd definitely get the fasten of it after a few time. Also people were mentioning how there is now handrail. with our ladder we used the upper rungs to direct onto and this looks steep enough where you could do the same thing. I LOVE it![ADVERTHERE]Related article:
