The Staircase is a Sculpture in the Store

A spiral staircase in the central void of a luxury flagship store, composed of light-colored stone treads and a continuous curved plaster handrail wall, with a thin strip of indirect lighting embedded in the inner edge of the handrail. It is visible from the first-floor entrance, as is the light from the second floor above the staircase. It is not just a circulation path, but the most eye-catching piece in the entire store, inviting people to ascend it. Avoid: hiding the staircase in a corner or at the back of the store, using ordinary straight-run steel stairs with glass railings, surrounding the staircase with merchandise that obscures its form, relying solely on elevators to connect floors.

精品旗艦店中央挑空裡的一座旋轉樓梯,以淺色石材踏板與一道連續的曲面灰泥扶手牆構成,扶手內緣嵌著一條細細的間接光;從一樓入口一眼就能看到它,也看到樓梯上方二樓的光。它不只是動線,更是整間店最搶眼的一件作品,讓人想要走上去。避免:把樓梯藏在店的角落或後方、使用一般的直跑鋼樓梯與玻璃欄杆、樓梯周圍擺滿商品遮住形體、只靠電梯連接樓層。
