Trapeze Stair Duplex

"Move an inch and the whole thing changes.

" This is what my photographer Brad Dickson commented about the stair when he was shooting it.

My client had bought the apartment below his and wanted to build a masculine and sleek home for himself.

I imagined the stair as the focal point of the duplex - effortless with its connections hidden, as if it is simply touching the walls and floors around it.

Ever changing as the flatness of the metal changes its appearance with every angle.

In the master bathroom - expanded to swallow up the old bathroom, kitchen, and dining area - we progress from a long vanity and a soaking tub, towards a large square shower built of dark stone and teak.
