HOUSES WITHOUT STAIRS
Saint-Étienne is home to two "stairless" houses, built in 1933 and 1940 by architect Auguste Bossu
Saint-Etienne is home to two so-called "stairless" houses, built in 1933 and 1940 by the architect Auguste Bossu. This building is unique in history for a residential building. A spiral staircase leads to 35 apartments of 2 or 3 rooms alternating over a height that corresponds to about 6 floors of a classical building. It makes it possible to remove the landings and staircases. An innovation designed to reduce the fatigue associated with the use of stairs.
