Just two questions:
#1- How practical are emergency stairs that cross each other's way? The
corners where they cross would create massive jams! Besides, they might have
to be a little wider nearer to the bootom than on top, since more people
would use them as you go down.
#2- How is it collapse-proof?

The building is lovely, I like the design very much. I am skeptical about
the stairs, though.
