Huge spiral staircase spins you through 2340 degrees of architectural beauty

spiral_stairs_aussie.jpg

There’s something fascinating about unusually-designed staircases, and we’ve shown you a few. We’ve even displayed one that goes nowhere at all. But this one at the Garvan Institute in Sydney, Australia goes somewhere, alright, making you navigate 6.5 revs and five stories from top to bottom.

It’s enough to make your head spin. Kudos to Flickr pro Eagle-ffm for snapping this super-sharp, gorgeous architectural eye candy — the perfect accompaniment for our spiraling descent through the last day of the workweek and into the hottest weekend of the year.
