At first glance, you might not notice anything special about the staircase of this stylishly designed house. However, if you look closer, you’ll find that it is the exact same width as the hallway, making it impossible to go to the other side.
However, in this home, shared by two households, the staircase takes on an innovative function. With the skeleton design of the staircase, it allows for a feeling of connectivity with the residents in the adjacent living space while maintaining a clear separation between the two households.
In most homes, this separation is achieved by using physical structures such as solid walls. Conversely, this unique approach creates a new form of communication along with a distinct sense of both closeness and distance between the two households at the same time.
