    Stairs are so commonplace in architecture that we are already used to it every day. In fact, we are so familiar with it that we can walk up and down the steps even with our eyes closed. But you’ll definitely pay more careful attention to your steps after seeing these bad stair designs. Traditionally, stairs are deemed as a piece of construction with a simple purpose – to provide access to another floor in a safe and easy way. But over the course of time, stairs became representative sculptures and works of art for any building. In contemporary architecture, stairs should not only be practical but they should be attractive as well. Unfortunately, there are some designers who took stair design to a different tact by going over the top.

    We actually don’t have any problem with staircases with intricate designs. However, when a stair is designed in a sense that it compromises our safety then that creates a problem. Functionality, accessibility and safety should come first before aesthetic design. Even a single flaw in the construction could result in serious falls that may lead to serious injuries. Take a look at these examples of bad stair designs that will surely put your eyes and minds into confusion. And let these photos remind other designers that we certainly prefer simple stair designs as long as they are safe. Get ready to cringe with these bad stair designs that are literally stairways to hell.
