About Bcompact Hybrid Pangunahing Tungkulin: Hagdanang Natutupi sa Gilid
Ang Bcompact Hybrid ay isang hagdanang natutupi sa gilid na idinisenyo para sa mga maliliit na tahanan at lugar ng trabaho. Ang hagdanan ay natutupi patagilid upang maging patag sa o nasa loob ng dingding kapag hindi ginagamit. Ang isang natutuping gabay-kamay at isang awtomatikong pintuang pangkaligtasan ay gumagalaw kasabay ng pagtupi. Ang mga stringer at baytang ay hiniwa mula sa bamboo plyboard na nagmula sa napapanatiling pinagkukunan gamit ang mga paraang may mababang aksaya sa paghiwa. Ang mga bahaging tanso, aluminyo at stainless steel ay tumutulong sa mahabang buhay ng serbisyo. Ang bawat yunit ay ginawa ayon sa kinakailangang taas at anggulo, kaya't ang pagpasok sa mas mataas na antas ay makakamit nang may kaunting gawaing pagtatayo.

Specially designed 180deg. built it hinges, enabling the product to fold flat & within its own maximum thickness of 40mm.
Products utilize all non-ferrous metals, Brass, Aluminium & stainless steel to ensure a long & fully functional design life cycle. - Design Challenge
- The original concept of creating a stair/ladder that was fully functional and operational that also took up virtually no space when not in use, was the most difficult part to think up an original innovation of a device that had basically been unchanged for thousands of years.
Once achieved and evolved into final renditions, working out how the certification and standards for this never-before-seen functionality could be adapted and or changed to suit and therefore be used in commercial and industrial applications? Still an ongoing challenge that is needing solutions. - Research
- Twenty years of research and development has lead to the creation of the latest rendition of the Hybrid stair, with automatic bi-folding safety rail and automatic safety gate. The desire to achieve a compact space-saving device that serves this unique function whilst taking up virtually no space when not in use and incorporating sustainable materials and design techniques has been a labor of love and necessity.
- Inspiration
- Whilst living in NYC's high-priced & cramped conditions for many years, I realized the necessity to create products and furniture that make the most from your practical living space. Furniture that folds away or has multiple functions.
Returning to study later in life to pursue a Product Design Degree, I realized an even greater need for sustainable products, ethical design practices & material use, which lead me to devote my practice to these aspects, sustainability & clever, compact design. - Project Duration
- These initial products were launched to a worldwide market in 2019 and these latest versions and varieties are coming to market now.
Designed in Sydney Australia and manufactured in here and the USA for worldwide distribution. - Operation Flow
- With minimal infrastructure alterations, you can quickly create new usable spaces in your home or work areas. Simply accessing new locations to broaden the opportunities to make new living & workspaces. Adding value to your home for the least cost and time whilst maximizing the area when not in use. Also creating an exceptional security device, denying access to top alternate floors.
