Something to “Stair” at

The Waiheke Island community proudly opened it’s new Public Library in July 2014. It was four times the size of it’s predecessor, and had many design elements drawn upon local iwi traditions. When the plans called for an elevated treehouse right in the middle of the project, R&H Engineering were called on to build a flowing spiral staircase. Our photos show the staircase under construction, but there’s some great images of the finished product at the website of Pacific Environments Architects.
