Subject: Re:
ltr.1=1.7;s not exactly a service stair but rather an alternative one to leave you=a personal staircase to the bike parking.
Both stairs will be treated=with the same aesthetic attention, and therefore will be no more obtrusive =o the view than
the stairs to the bike parking. The symmetry of the d=uble staircase will in fact make it look less like a "service" =tair and
more like an appropriate architectural feature. Furthermore,=by turning the last set of stairs parallel to the road, it
allows the pedes=rian realm (stairs and sidewalk) and the vehicular realm (road) to be separ=ted with a wall, which will
provide a softer transition from walkway to roa=. If you would prefer to remove the double staircase, and instead jus=
have one stair to the bike parking, then that is perfectly viable. Finally= with an appropriate planting scheme (low-
growing, wind tolerant plants) th= visibility of the final sequence of stairs from the kitchen window will be=negligible.
christian you made a service stair„ directly in line =ith the kitchen view. why? it makes no sense.
