@globalmuseum I'd be confused and trapped too

@globalmuseum I love the concept. I think it would make stair climbing more comfortable.

@globalmuseum good for getting rid of grandma. 😶

@globalmuseum The only verifiable fact here is the term, though even that's uncertain. After more than half a century in New England, I've yet to see even ONE example of these in ANY home, of any age or provenance. I'm sure there're out there, but they're definitely not "commonly found". They were invented as a space-saving device, and modern examples exist in some industrial spaces. (Especially under the brand name Lapeyre, who make a prefab modular metal version.)

@globalmuseum Hit and miss stairs. They still get used in many places, often for access to a loft room, without sacrificing as much space as a normal, less steep, staircase would occupy.

@globalmuseum

Personally, I'd be more afraid of Daleks than witches. At least Daleks are real.

@globalmuseum

One day, in the dim distant future, when humans have finally grown up, there'll be a huge museum filled with examples of non-self-aware OCD architecture like staggered stairs, churches, temples, giant Buddhas, etc.
LOL

@globalmuseum Interesting. I need those, too!
