The first thing you need to do is move into a house. A bungalow simply won't do.
Something else you could also try is search YouTube. I did and there was no lack of examples there:

I am sure you'll find something there that will tickle your fancy!

Also what type of robot? Wheels, tracks, lifting designs so many designs that can do this. Also my Biped, still the only Bipedhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBWPkInCWnU to have climbed and decended steps made from Lego. This is an older version as well my latest is right now working on 5inch steps up and down as I type.

One thing about Utube is there are so many Lego projects on it that one could find about anything built ever of Lego. Pluss a video proves it works.

I have been working on tracked and walking robots that climb stairs for so long now, it is to say the least an obsession.
