Constraints / challenges?
From our initial site meeting it was clear that our experience and design expertise were going to be needed to make the installation of the staircase as quick and simple as possible. Wood Wharf is an extremely busy site so it was imperative that our staircase didn’t slow or impede other works at site. As a result, our in-house Designers created design concepts that required a minimal amount of fitting at site, with the vast majority of the work undertaken at our London factory. This meant that installation was quick and easy. Due to intuitive design, 11 flights of stairs were installed in 1 single motion when our staircase was installed from a height using a crane on site.
Fabrication Detail:
An 11-storey bespoke staircase that required the minimum amount of assembly at site.
