Aolei Wang: Week 2- Stair Concept Submission

Week 2- Stair Concept Submission

Dynamic stair

The concept of the staircase leading from the lower level client, Auto Fabrica, to the showroom was based on the word 'dynamic'. Taking inspiration from one of my previous section sketches, I created a staircase that would unite the client and the word 'dynamic'. The sharp spikes can be interpreted as the fierce nature of motorcycles as they rumble and speed down highways. Whilst the protruding faces of the spikes exude a dynamic aura created by the rhythmic up and down of the surface. The inclusion of a ramp on both sides of the steps is to assist with the moving of the client's motorcycles up and down to the showroom.

Irregular stair

The concept of the staircase leading from the upper level client, 'Off-white', down to the showroom was based off the word 'irregular'. The lighthearted nature of their clothes is represented in the floating stairs as they give off a weightless feeling in the air. Additionally, the mismatching lengths and widths of the steps fit with the word 'irregular'. Also the random wires that connect the handrail to the steps are adventurous, much like the client's work, as no two wires are the same length or angle.
