Stair Sketches

Tilt + Contrast

This stair connects the underground to the ground floor. When viewed from above, the spiral stair resembles a car tire which reflects the client 'Khyzyl Saleem'. This was achieved by using a metal structure underneath a glass tread. A set of 'mini stairs' is also featured in the design in the glass tread, a decision influenced by the work of the other client 'Trent Jansen'.

This stair connects the ground to the first floor. Two different designs were incorporated into this stair to act as a 'transition' between the two levels and clients. The lower stair incorporates design elements from the 'tire stair' which the upper stair acts as an extension of the tilt + contrast structure.

Contrast + Curved

This stair connects the underground to the ground floor. This stair reflects the more curved and fluid design of the bottom layer of the datum. The top and bottom stairs are connected in a way that allows them to be easily attached to the surrounding structure without extra support. 

This stair connects the ground to the first floor. Like the previous stair, it reflects the region of the datum that it is located in. This region is more rigid and stiff which is represented through the more polygonal design of this stair.
