Bcompact Hybrids Compact Side Folding Stair

Bcompact Hybrids

Bcompact Hybrid is a side folding staircase designed for compact homes and workspaces. The staircase folds sideways to sit flush with or inside the wall when not in use. A bi-folding handrail and an automatic safety gate move with the folding action. Stringers and treads are cut from sustainably sourced bamboo plyboard using low waste cutting methods. Brass, aluminium and stainless steel parts support a long service life. Each unit is made to the required height and angle, so access to upper levels is gained with minimal building work.

Bcompact Hybrids Compact Side Folding Stair by Zev Bianchi was selected as an innovative example of industrial design by the A' Design Awards. Bcompact Hybrids Compact Side Folding Stair received the Silver A' Design Award in Building Materials and Construction Components Design in 2021. The A' Building Materials and Construction Components Design Award is a juried, academic and highly prestigious design accolade that honors superior design of bricks, beams, windows, doors, insulation materials, roofing materials, plumbing fixtures, electrical components and more.
