Experiment 1: The Stair Conceptual Model

Section Reference

Client: Khyzyl Saleem (underground section)
Word: "block"



The Stair

The Stair Reference Sections

Location: from the underground workshop to the ground level studio

Inspired by the word "block", chosen to reflect the design style of Khyzyl Saleem in some examples of his work, these stairs are geometrically designed to look polished and modern. The wedge shape of each stair reinterprets the meaning of "block" to enable the stairs to seem delicate and lightweight compared to standard rectangular blocks. The alternating directions of the wedges maintain the balance and systematic arrangement of the steps, reflecting the ideas associated with the word "block". Additionally, the semi-cantilevered style of the stairs enhances the "lightweight" appearance of the steps and the thin metal slabs over the glass wedges further add to the "floating" impression of the staircase.
