Stair Sketch up

STAIR 1
Steel and Wire stairs
I like how it is floating allows more space in 
 small area

Antonio Stradivari these stairs are inspired
by the his use of wood
the steel tops are like the wires on the violin

  1. Great effort michelle!

    In terms of design the floating staircase does achieve a feeling of lightness. Do check the size of all your risers, they look inconsistent and a bit too high as well. Think about the material of that staircase, what is the material and thickness of the folded material? How is the cable connected to the staircase? How is it connected to the ceiling? Is the staircase sufficiently restrained? What happens when the landing touches the glass wall? Is a dogleg staircase the best design for your spaces? These are just a few of the many options that you have to consider.

    The second staircase looks like fairly standard. Perhaps you could do something different with the balustrades, or show what is happening under all the timber.. A good way to start is to ask yourself 'what is my concept for this stair? What sort of feeling or emotion do I want the user to have?

    Good luck.
