"The Handrail"
Inspired by the use of the handrail, each mode of occupation is focused along the line, with each mode clearly distinguishable and easy to identify in order to accommodate varying (dis)abilities and cognitive states.
The materiality echoes the base of the building, further connecting to its site, while also being comfortable and durable for any amount of users that it may see.
