Building on an existing framework, and repurposed wood the design for this staircase uses a variety of materials to create a rhythmic, minimalist cadence. As users ascend or descend, the staircase folds, frames and evolves by transforming alongside the user’s path. The wood slats were crafted from reclaimed red oak that was once the building’s door jams, window frames and millwork. The reuse of the concrete foundation recalls the original staircase framework while offering a contemporary and minimalist approach; this raw concrete contrasted with the precise wood elements creates a diversity in material language. The result is a literal and figurative expression of elevated design that grounds the space and offers a unique place for spontaneous collaboration. Careful consideration of construction strategies allowed for precision and hidden fastening.
