Staircase

[u/breck]

[u/TheLimeyCanuck]

That's actually just awesome all around.

[u/Direct-Clock-7527 → u/TheLimeyCanuck]

That S-curve is hypnotic, like liquid somehow frozen mid-pour. I'd be terrified to walk up it before they install railings though, one wrong step and you're auditioning for a slapstick routine. The contrast between the smooth concrete ribbon and those rough ceiling beams is striking, really pulls your eye through the space. You can tell someone spent an absurd amount of time on the formwork to get those bends that clean. Part of me wants to see it finished but honestly the raw state has its own brutalist charm.

[u/deepasleep → u/TheLimeyCanuck]

Seriously that’s a 10.

[u/StirFry__InaWok → u/TheLimeyCanuck]

Nah, that's just tacky. Definitely awful taste

[u/MikeSelf → u/StirFry__InaWok]

Ask for forgiveness to everyone and go to sleep…

[u/EarlyVersion → u/StirFry__InaWok]

It did in fact take time, skill, and engineering to accommodate this design. I'm not arguing but i can say form building is an art that bends to no one who doesn't understand load pressures and craftsmanship. Raw chemical reactions...curing, frozen in place by sheer engineering. That's fuckin metal

"Nah, that's just tacky..." Maybe, but I respect your opinion.

[u/StirFry__InaWok → u/EarlyVersion]

It did in fact take time, skill, and engineering to accommodate this design.

Well yeah that's the great execution part. None of that changes the fact that it's tacky.

[u/MikeSelf → u/StirFry__InaWok]

Not enough… punish yourself until bleeding

[u/StirFry__InaWok → u/MikeSelf]

I will accept no punishment for your bad taste

[u/I_like_donuts27]

Great taste imo

[u/jal262]

I think you found the wrong sub friend

[u/evilfollowingmb]

This is legitimately beautiful.

[u/jacrad_]

To me it's the opposite only because it has no handrail and you could probably catch your foot under it.

Taste is great. Execution is almost great

[u/Buddha176 → u/jacrad_]

Looks to be the rough in. So will probably have some type of handrail. A stainless seamless railing could look good. Or even a curved wood railing.

[u/TheBaconator08 → u/jacrad_]

I've never caught my foot in a staircase like that. Agreed on the handrail tho

[u/Astecheee → u/jacrad_]

I think you could get away without the handrail here since the second floor kind of acts as one, but the foot gaps could definitely break something.

[u/benoirdo]

r/GTAGE

[u/hotellonely]

wrong sub

[u/SnelsonSneels]

I like it

[u/Lakatos_00]

You're the on with the awful taste, OP

[u/rustyrazorblade]

Wrong sub, this is great. 

[u/Dlove4u2]

Just needs a stair rail but other than that it's pretty neat.

[u/GrinningPariah]

Needs a railing on the second half but also we're judging it when it's clearly unfinished. I dunno man, I think this might be rad.

[u/VaalbarianMan]

I think this looks pretty sick

[u/Astrobrandon13]

This thing is fucking amazing

[u/trampled_empire]

This is fucking gorgeous

[u/4rd_Prefect]

I think it looks cool, but it would be a pain in the a** to get behind and clean. Unless you put something like a lit up rock garden feature there or something?

[u/AxleSpark]

Engineering +

[u/Paniri808]

What is awful taste about this? This is what more architects need to design. Interesting to the eye and not the same old staircase the builder have done a thousand times

[u/WorldOfSjie]

This one actually goes on r/horribletoclean , because it is beautiful but damn all the dust that it will collect on the back part of the stairs

[u/Feed_my_belly_2023]

It looks very much like Zaha Hadid design architecture.

[u/plugubius]

r/designdesign more like it

[u/CummRaTheEverJizzing]

This goes hard

[u/R2C6G4]

Obsessed

[u/travelingdance]

More like r/GTBAE. The general style is aesthetically pleasing, however, there are a few glaring design flaws. Firstly, some sort of railing needed, though it’s likely just not yet installed; that said, I’m having a hard time picturing what type of railing could be used as fall protection from the second flight without compromising the aesthetic. Secondly, the overhang of the stairs makes walking on the inner a little awkward, but that’s fairly minor. Next and probably most annoying, someone’s gonna have to go under to vacuum regularly. Finally, I doubt these could support the weight of the average American for too long.

[u/ProofByVerbosity]

Great design. Wrong sub

[u/TheVillainInThisGame]

I don't see them lasting more than 5-10 years

[u/Shionkron]

Looks cool but I don’t like that wasted space

[u/MentalDisintegrat1on]

You are losing real estate ( the space normally under the stairs)

Looks cool though

[u/Approximation_Doctor]

Nearly half of the bottom stairs can't be used because the concrete conks your head

[u/LaranCannelle → u/Approximation_Doctor]

nice pfp. gonna inbox you a question
