Alexa Roberts Looking Out Week 15

The sculptured staircase, designed by Alex Haw’s London-based Atmos Studio for a residential project, recreates the structural flow of the living spaces, incorporating the pattern of the house’s skirting board into its form. In accordance with the greater layout of the space, which seeks to visually connect rooms and other living spaces, the risers of the staircase extend into the bathroom space below, stretching along the wall and around existing furniture, to integrate fully into the space. The stair was digitally fabricated, using sheets of MDF and oak that were digitally cut directly from the architecture team’s design plans into the individual pieces of the structure. Each component was engineered to slot together, creating a unified form once assembled.
