welcome, really a successful one in design, would put a small bar atop with some sunchairs but winter would be rarely there to be fitted well. It a good example that design well done not necessary should be the tallest for an office building. Of course somethings could be improved there, but i think at least 95% are ok. I don't of course the use functional inside. More stunning photos from it Thanks for you nice comments by the way.

Made already a diagram to it since long, but couldn't upload to site. You know, i will not request the card.

Love this thread! There are few things both as spiritually enriching and physically enlivening as a good stairway.
A William Blake painting, titled Jacob's Ladder, comes to mind...
