A huge steel spiral staircase has been installed on top of a warehouse in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, as part of the Fenix Museum designed by Chinese studio MAD.
The final phase of the installation of the sculptural staircase, called Tornado, took place today, marking the topping out of the museum.
Rising 30 metres through a former warehouse, which is being transformed in collaboration with conservation studio Bureau Polderman, the sculptural form is clad in 297 highly polished stainless-steel panels.
The staircase will form part of the Fenix Museum, which is described as the “first museum in the world dedicated to stories of migration”.
