The largest and most impressive of these three staircases is the showcase double helix stair, which links large public spaces across levels 4 to 7. The double ribbon spiral design originated with architects FJMT and is inspired by the double helix structure of a DNA molecule. It is not only an impressive design feature, but also a reminder of how breakthroughs in science and technology have transformed our world, which acts as an inspiration to students and staff as they use the stair.
From the initial design & development of the stairs through to custom packed delivery of quality product, Glasshape worked with Active Metal every step of the way to ensure a hassle-free bent glass experience on what is arguably one of the most complex and beautifully designed and executed staircase projects in the southern hemisphere.
