A typical stepping stool is often put away somewhere when not in use, but this is a problem here because this one is not particularly small. The Metaphys lucano 3-step, with an exterior frame designed to fit in with interiors, was conceived as a stepping stool that can be displayed when not in use, rather than hidden. Users can grab the handle to climb, work in high places and descend safely. There is also a series built around this model, using components common to the Metaphys lucano two-step stool and using the same form to achieve a three-step type with greater safety.
