A House for a Staircase

A free spiraling stairsculpture connects three floors. The elliptical layout of the sculpture was an extreme fabrication challenge for the construction engineers.

The stairs are crowned with a bronze mirror ceiling on the upper floor. Five gently, luminescent rings float weightless underneath.
