Above + below are two images in sketchUP of the glass staircase which heads towards the upper studio. There are in total 40 risers in this staircase, so i divided the flights equally into four lots of ten and have platforms proposed to be the same design as the stairs to break up the flights. The arms which 'hook' into the stair [alike some of stelarc in his works], also act as a balustrade and continue the design intent of trying to create stairs that do not cut off the room but tries to define/enclose it.

Above and below are two images of the staircase heading towards the lower studio. Each one of these steps are different to the other. By making the treads wider along the main corridor of the staircase, i was hoping to make it as easy as possible to shift artworks from the studio below to the gallery/performance space above. The irregularity of the stair shape was inspired by the word + of the initial section, [pain].
WORD: PAIN
