I will never unsee Gomez throwing his whole hand into the snap. Lurch has a bit of wrist flick, but Gomez is going whole enchilada, I wonder if it's his fingers snapping or his wrists.
Might as well extend the steps so that they touch each other. It would no longer have a platform there, but it would be easier to climb. You would have a step ledge, but it's already a crap situation.
I mean personally I fail to see how this whole… thing… is better than like.. adding a half inch or whatever to each of the stair rises in the flight on the way up.. as long as it doesn’t surpass 7 3/4 inch per-stair rise, which I imagine this doesn't come close to just by the way it looks, you could probably kill a lot of that weirdness with just super basic alterations..
No, I think this hazard was a conscious decision, or at least the architect who drew it up sucks.
I’m surprised it meets code tho, tbh. This is just begging someone to tumble down the stairs in the middle of the night.
Could even be caused by code - complying with current code only applies to things you change.
For example, maybe the stairs were in a bad place so someone moved them (I briefly considered that). Now the stairs need to comply with code, such as maximum steepness. How do you make that fit? The right way probably involves expensive structural mods (or having just said no), so this is the contractor making it fit “affordable”
I'm not sure. Are the stairs downstairs so short that you couldn't have distributed the height of the three weird steps among them? If not, you'd have an even floor upstairs.

Thanks for pointing this out. I'm loving it.
Local safety regulations require a breathalyzer test before you're allowed upstairs.
At this point, why would you want that double height step when walking to the bathroom from the hallway?
Just to, you know, keep things interesting.

Reminds me of when my build in Minecraft doesn't quite line up as I had imagined and I'm too lazy to fix it. Guess that happens in real life, too.
Developer: "Show me where it says I can't do that."

What in tarnation?!
There is indeed true evil in the world, let no relativist tell you otherwise.

A dollar says your sketch is the first drawn plan of this project.

You don't want to change the height of stairs
Fuck it, make it a smooth funnel
What are you doing step ledge? 🤭
This is what happens when you don't plan your Minecraft house right
I thought it was a Doom map at first
myhouse.wad energy
This looks like some shit i'd build in the first night in minecraft when i run out of stair blocks.
That stairwell off to the right seems to be at such a shallow angle they could have just made a flat hallway and used slightly steeper steps.
I love this for some reason.
Same, I wanna live in a house like this
What the fuck
I think someone extended their house, but didn’t plan the flooring in the original design
Damn. Sorry you no-clipped
After growing up in a house like this, a straight flat hallway gets me every time.
As in you like them or you're fucked up by them?
Yes, pretty much.
This reminds me of a nightmare I used to have as a kid, thanks
Prosecutor: Did you know your spouse was chronically clumsy when you moved into this home?
Defendant: YOU'VE GOT NOTHING ON ME
It would be interesting to see the modifications made over time that resulted in this fucking monstrosity.
Nobody would actually design a house like that.
most horrifying thing is the bathroom being at the top of a flight of (carpeted) stairs
At least they are carpeted
Into a bathroom no less!!
Bonus for the toilet right there in the bathroom with no door.
I'm pretty sure the door just opens inward
Falling injuries would skyrocket if that door opened outward.
I'd rather believe that it opens outward and upward (out of frame) like a DeLorean.
Wanna make a bathroom with stairs leading into it the most likely place for your eventual death? Add a torsion spring to the interior.
Yup, there’s a strike plate.
I'm not sure. Are the stairs downstairs so short that you couldn't have distributed the height of the three weird steps among them? If not, you'd have an even floor upstairs.
Maybe not. Building code requires the steps to be consistent and I’m pretty sure there’s a maximum steepness.
Obviously we don’t know the history but I bet this was their best “make it fit” solution when the correct way would be expensive
I never mind a nice thump fuck in the night
When I'm dreaming the architecture has a lot of features like this. Check out images of Jiufen in Taiwan for some next level stairs
Feels like it would work a bit better if the stairs were just at an angle into the corner
I was thinking it could work if it was rounded.
Why isn't this illegal. Why isn't anything that has to do with houses illegal.
Okay who let the Tzeench cultists use construction tools, only Khornates are allowed to use them after the Leman Russ incident.
This looks like something one would build in Minecraft in the first base.
Could rent that place to medical schools to teach their students how to treat twisted ankles.
stair city over here
This is legit cool
This is maddening to look at. Motion to install wall railing and leave that light on at all times.
I am Darkwing Duck!
when there's trouble you call D W [bass slapping]
I feel like I saw this hallway on McMansion Hell
Now that's a great way to sprain your ankle.
