The arc and circular form are used repeatedly in the design. The arced entry staircase reinforces that design theme and ultimately becomes a centerpiece of the paving design. The upper level is sized to comfortably handle up to three people at one time without falling off the step. This design detail is of utmost importance when the patio space is an extension of the kitchen. The enlarged upper step enhances smooth pedestrian circulation by providing space for people to stand while waiting for others to pass through the door with food and refreshments.
