    • Organic Curved stair form

      Hi!
      I am trying to create a monolithic curved stair form around a irregular plan shape and need help on how to achieve it.

      We want it to resemble an elegant smooth sculptural form (probably plaster) similar to that of Harry Seidlers.

      The problem is that it is not a properly round shape, and it is created from a series of ellipses, as you can see from the plan Plan

      I have been trying to use curviloft plugin and have not had much luck.
      Ideally i would love if there was a plugin or something similar that can create a smooth spline in 3d, so i can follow the form of the stair down (cant use a helix as it does not follow a circle) and use that as a path to extrude via 'follow me'. Does anyone know of one?
      Or any other suggestions?

      Is there anyone who can help?? We have a deadline for tomorrow and am running out of time 😦
