  1. Beautiful, but potentially a tripping hazard. Can't wait to see the comments on this one!

    1. skinning your ankles coming down, so easy to miss a step.

      I bet these do not meet building codes in America, the tread length varies.

  2. Concur with the tripping risk, smooth finish is also a risk, doesn't go with the decor at all.

  3. You'd better be stone sober before attempting to use those crazy stairs.

  4. Gotta be AI…ah .!!!……to trip and fall, let me count the ways ………starting with coming in the front door and tripping over the first step…

    1. They might be motion sensors to turn on each stair's lighting, although that would be odd from my electrical engineering point of view.

      Other than that, I have no idea.

    2. Just a guess, but you'd need a box somewhere to connect the understep lighting (BTW, yeah, they're certainly LED lights, but how do you change the lights when they inevitably go out?).

      But I agree: Those cover plates do distract from the stairs.

    3. Junction Box covers, power connects for each step's light.

  6. It's artistic and a functional staircase.

    Tripping hazard? Every staircase is a Tripping hazard. Iron circular staircases is even worse.

    Plenty of shiny clearcoat finishes are used in stores and public buildings that are rated Non-Slip.

  8. I love it, amazing craftsmanship. I’d hesitate to walk on it because I’d be afraid I’d scratch it. And yes, I guarantee I’d fall down that work of art.

  9. Could they add a water feature. A waterfall perhaps cascading dpwn onw side of the steps.

  10. I don't see a handrail.

  11. Somebody forgot, "form follows function."

  12. More AI slop.
    If you don't trip with the first step when you open the door and somehow manage to go up all the steps without a handrail or tripping on the irregular steps then you reach the top of the stairs and realize that there is no way to leave these stairs. They forgot the top landing

  13. Same finish as used on gym floors?

  14. arky here. Just completed 2 projects with a total of 11 sets of stairs and 2 sets of handicap ramps. One was an 11,000 sf church and the other was a 6000 sf custom home. Basically, the illustration above is not real. I could list the reasons but most have already been mentioned.
