The staircase design in University Chambers represents the pinnacle of class and optimal internal efficiency; what a desirable workspace!
University Chambers is a leading floor of barristers in Sydney, whose members principally practice in commercial law. The firm recently relocated from the Elizabeth St office to the newly refurbished Macquarie House, an A grade office tower offering spectacular views across the city, the Royal Botanic Gardens, and Sydney Harbour.
University Chambers engaged 4PM projects to design and manage its new workplace. With sustainability, well-being, and flexibility being geared at the forefront of the design, the design also reflects the firm’s sense of calm and attention to detail. The internal steel stair is an essential piece in the workplace to facilitate movements and physical health. The structural steel staircase designed and constructed by Active Metal is semi-encased by the feature brass balustrade screen, which is a perfect design to remove the constraints of base build floor plates, creating a classic and private ambiance. The stair handrails are finished with premium leather wrap, adding layers of sophistication to this staircase design in a modern boutique workspace.
This staircase design is an ode to the craftsmanship, one of the most exemplary quality pieces we’ve been privileged to create.
