I think this has been excellently executed. so what if there are no handrails. sure it won't pass building codes in many countries but its a great deterrent for keeping kids and others out of your loft. ;)

looking at how its attached to the steel beams inside the wall, those steps aren't going anywhere. it's simple physics really.

and don't knock minimalism people. judging by how many of you people have thought this was photoshopped or completely not usable i believe the architect has achieved his goal: maximum shock value while hiding all the effort.

great job!!!
