Crafted by Asentis and Bates Smart, the Officeworks Chadstone HQ staircase embodies more than just functionality—it symbolises the company’s commitment to a vibrant and sustainable workspace. Designed with both aesthetics and practicality in mind, the staircase integrates high-quality materials and thoughtful detailing to create a striking architectural feature.
Featuring steel treads and risers clad in engineered oak timber floorboards, the staircase exudes warmth and sophistication. A radial detail on the mid-landing introduces a unique design element, distinguishing it from conventional staircases. Continuous rolled steel plate balustrades, painted in Dulux Lexicon Half Matt Finish, seamlessly integrate with oak timber veneer cladding, creating a visually cohesive structure. The timber cladding elegantly spirals alongside the steel balustrade, incorporating supporting handrail brackets and subtle lighting niches. On-site painted stainless steel handrails further enhance the refined appearance, while the plasterboard stair soffit, painted to match the balustrades, maintains aesthetic consistency.
Fabricated in four large sections and meticulously installed on-site, the staircase’s construction required precision due to its size, deep steel plate balustrades, and proximity to the glass façade. Overcoming these challenges, the final structure stands as a testament to innovation and collaboration, reflecting Officeworks’ dedication to dynamic and visually compelling work environments.
