In partnership with Cox Architecture and Morris Property Group, Asentis delivered a staircase that elevates both the form and function of the Commonwealth Tenancy at the edge of Brisbane’s CBD. Designed to reflect the surrounding native flora, the stair’s subtle colour palette ties into a broader workplace narrative centred on growth and connection. The design spans 13 floors and includes three double stairs, two single flights, and a striking 5.5-metre helical stair – each element crafted to enhance movement and flow throughout the space.
Asentis played an active role from the beginning, developing a full-scale prototype to ensure the vision was clearly understood and precisely executed. This collaborative, hands-on process helped shape a result that is both architecturally refined and technically robust. The sculptural “drum” design, complete with a 12mm steel balustrade, creates a bold yet seamless visual anchor while maintaining structural integrity.
Navigating a tight timeline and complex site logistics, Asentis used modular fabrication and a detailed propping system to streamline installation. The result? A sophisticated, future-facing stair delivered ahead of schedule – and a standout example of what happens when innovation, precision, and partnership come together.
