What is this picture from lmao
The stairs are part of an art installation at the Kongresshaus in Biel, Switzerland. “Beautiful steps number two” was created in 2009 for an exhibition. The artists told the website Snopes the stairs and doors are not functional, and the steps are not meant to support real people.
Only fake people take those stairs…
That’s what they want you to think. Otherwise, all the tourists would be taking their shits on Tiktok in this “hidden gem”.
I’ve often that about that if I could design a house, I’d have a room just like this. Like there would be a section of the house that was tower like and the only way to get to the room at the top would be to take an exterior balcony-like-staircase from the second floor to the room in question - the sole room on the “third floor”.
There’s just something about a room like that that makes it fell so isolated, peaceful and serene. And the exterior access makes it feel like a little adventure getting there. Like if the weather were bad you might opt not to go there because it would mean gearing up to make the trip.
I want to build a house that has stairs that go nowhere and a bunch of hidden passages and rooms that only makes sense if you live there
Ah, the Winchester Mystery House approach
I’ve fantasized about this.
I had some friends who actually DID build a secret room behind a bookshelf, where they had their home theatre or something like that I forget (they were more like close coworkers of my wife than my own friends, but they were super nice).
that’s where you can find the BFG in this early level
The factory I work at has a bathroom like that. Most of the place is loud and noisy as hell. One place is quiet. Quiet enough to where you could remove your earplugs. There is a bathroom there that always has its lights off. Nobody else uses it. THAT is my “secret” throne.

I have badly needed a shit all day but I work outdoors. Unfortunately not quite outdoors enough, though. Two more hours to go, or thereabouts, wish me luck and sphinctoral fortitude.
Reminds me of that bridge in Half Life 2
