SOCIALISING THE STAIRWAYS
The idea of ‘services as social space’ came from a larger observation on site. Usually, the service elements of a building are hidden or it acts like a dead space. Here the concept began by identifying these services eg. the staircases, plinths, windows, plumbing service area etc. using these elements as an anchor to create affordances and spaces in them. Stairs and steps are the prominent elements making the programs within them. Majorly the building consists of these staircases and plinths which are placed strategically, and also act as an inviting factor.
