Stair Design brings together more than seventy recent projects from all over the world, which respond to highly diverse needs: from just a few steps compensating the changing level in a loft, to never-ending staircases that rise up the facade of a skyscraper. Included in each section and classified according to their public or private use are numerous examples of stairs built from the most commonly used materials; wood, metal, re-enforced concrete and glass, or a combination of these, often used to maximize the design's efficiency. A swell as the wide-ranging sample of typologies and materials, Stair Design offers a selection of creative solutions for elements such as banisters or lighting, which are fundamental as the steps themselves.
