Cool Concepts: Bookcase Staircase

Not everyone in a house is tall; that is the main concept behind the creation of this Staircase, designed by the Shanghai based designer Danny Kuo. The Staircase is actually a bookcase that features sling out shelves.

If for instance you need a book placed on the upper shelf, but you are not tall enough to get it, you can simply pull the lower shelves out and use them as steps of a ladder. Shelves used as ladders are not a new concept, but the Staircase can be put anywhere and it’s very simple in creation and execution.

The design allows you to take advantage of high ceilings but still have an easily accessible piece of furniture in your apartment, especially if you are vertically challenged.

The Staircase can also be used instead of ladder if you want to reach a lofted area for storage. It is a practical and sleek storage furniture piece.
