Look, I’m sure it’s very hard designing buildings and such. It’s not something I’ve ever tried to do because I do not know anything about it and I 100% would get someone killed.
But if you’re hiring someone to do it, maybe don’t go with the cheapest guy you can find on Craigslist, because that person probably didn’t go to “how to build stuff” school either, and he’s gonna make some choices that will destroy your mind and also your back.
Choices like these staircases.

How many lives have been lost to this?
This flight of stairs outside a door is death waiting to happen. from CrappyDesign

For when you want a near death experience every time you use the stairs from CrappyDesign
