Project description
Folded steel staircase for gentlemen’s outfitter in Stuttgart
During the year 2015, MetallArt was one of the firms involved in the renovation of this shop, particularly renowned for its exclusive designer fashion menswear. Since the shop reopened in the autumn of that year, our uniquely designed steel staircase, an exclusive construction connecting four different floors, definitely serves as an eye catcher and fits in well with the elegant interior design of the premises.

- Flat-steel balustrade stringers concealing the treads of the steel staircase
- The stringers are fastened to the structural floor at the stair head and bottom in a force-closed manner
