Zinc Stairs is a roofed staircase with a height of 7 meters and a total weight of 2 tons. The staircase is the entry to a studio located in Weiden, Germany. Within the construction all requirements for public accesses were considered and the finished design was reviewed by an independent architect. Based on the static requirements the design of the staircase communicates stability through the 140mm wide double-t steel beams. To emphasize the upward movement to the first floor, continuous flat steels were used as railing elements.
