Origami Stairs began with a simple idea to manifest lightness literally symbolically. The design owes its form to its distinctive unidirectional cantilevered tread which tapers as the deflection forces diminish at its outermost limits. The structural logic of folding was mobilized to minimize the amount of material used to open the tread bed for its glass insert and to reveal the stairs expressive “wing” shape.
