Step Right Up

Stairs.  They're often utilitarian in shape, type and purpose.  But when they're done well, or unusually, they become architectural showstoppers.

Innovative staircase design is a forte for certain architectural firms.  Some of the staircases I've shown here are clearly not up to safety code [ahem!], but the creative character is worth noting and enjoying.
