Dub by Reinier de Jong Design

September 20, 2010

Reinier de Jong Design has designed and recently finished a staircase design named DUB. These steps seem really high but actually consist of two steps in one. Eight white blocks, sixteen grey steps. It makes DUB both a staircase and an abstract sculpture, expressive in shape and modest in color. It leads up to a roof terrace of a spacious apartment in The Hague and plays with the light from above making it look both solid and airy at the same time.

The balustrade adds quality to the staircase with its refined material expression and detailing. It is made of aluminum strips and glass panels. The aluminum strips are structural intermediates between the glass and the steps yet have their own graphic quality within the composition.
