Look! Two Amazing Staircases

atla032108-materialiciousst.jpgMaterialicious posted these two unbelievable staircases that both offer a floating ascension: the Flight of Passages designed by Blencowe Levine Associates is like an Escher painting come to life, while the Didden Village Staircase would make Crick and Watson smile. We're dizzy with joy by each.

Having owned a house with a spiral staircase that was wider than the Didden Village spiral, I can tell you that you would be dizzy alright, but not with joy. Just try to get furniture up that staircase.

Looks=joy
Function=no joy

These funky staircases always seem so fanciful, and unlikely to win a building inspector's approval in a new home being built.
