Stairs and ladders inspiration

I built a two story farm shack and am looking for some design inspiration regarding stairs/ladders/other means of getting up and down levels.

Right now I use a home built rope ladder indoors, and an aluminum ladder outside. Eventually I'd like more permanent and multifunctional builds in place, such that I can carry loads up and down.

Have you come across any really cool, funky, or multifunctional stairs and ladders builds lately?

I've seen plenty in videos from the Tiny House Movement. I do think that stairs with integral storage appeal to me. Stairs without tend to take up too much real-estate compared to ladders, but are much safer.

Similarly, spiral staircases are much more dangerous statistically than stairs with regular rectangular treads and rise height and a proper landing when the direction changes.

If you end up sticking with a ladder, consider a pully system for hauling things up and down along the lines of a dumb waiter.

Catch is, I've seen some neat stuff, but not used it. I've bought things in the past that got lots of publicity that made them sound wonderful, only to determine they were a waste of money and not worth the materials they were made of.

However, beyond what I said above, 2 ideas have caught my interest:
1. I would absolutely not have this in a situation where it couldn't be left in its "stairs" form when people required it for safe egress.

I've seen various versions of this, but this one at least is using some sections as storage. This could be scary for emergency egress, but if the railing was sturdy enough to take a significant amount of a person's weight, I think many could manage it. I would prefer to find someone who had actively used this sort of design (I recall it's been used on commercial boats) for at least a year and then asking them if they'd want one in their home.

Personally, rope ladders may look cool, but they're a pita to use (pita - pain in the ass feet).
