The stair is made from a 6mm thick steel sheet, which was folded and welded before being finished using the process of spraying atomised brass directly on to the steel (thermal spray metalizing).

A new handrail was attached to the brick wall, and metal trim was added to the edge of the mezzanine balustrade to complete the ensemble.
