Sketch Up Stairs

These 2 pictures display 2 different types of stairs that could be used to accomodate a product by Revival Cycles and Gucci respectively. The good thing about both of these designs is that these stairs retain their aesthetic feel without regard for whether the workshop for the product is above or below ground.

 With these stairs, a bike can be driven up or down in the middle. In the case that the consumer does not want the bike to be driven before they have driven it themselves, a rail system can be revealed underneath the ramp that the bike can be clamped onto, while the creator can walk on the stairs.


These stair designed for a Gucci product are also useable both up and down, but has most impact when being walked down. the stairs have a basic banister being displayed, while the triangular sheet hanging from the step above it has not been fully confirmed in terms of material. The triangle could either be glass, fabric, or two chains made from the Gucci symbol. It could also consist of a class casing all around the staircase, and a choice of either the fabric or chains to go in the place of the triangles.

Sketch Up Attempt of Building
