Drape Stair

The Drape Stair is an architectural centerpiece constructed from three metal sheets suspended from the ceiling. Each sheet is artfully draped to achieve structural integrity while functioning as a handrail. At the corners, the sheets interlock like puzzle pieces, creating a seamless, continuous enclosure. This project embodies elegance and innovation, blending sculptural design with functional purpose.

The handrails meet at the corners, each sheet capping its neighbor to produce a puzzle piece-like continuity of the surfaces.
