Enclosing stairs in open plan layout for fire regs

We have an open plan layout on the ground floor of our Victorian house. We're having our loft converted and now need to enclose the stairs on the ground floor to provide an exit separate from the open plan layout (due to fire regs). Would welcome any ideas on how to do this.

Thanks

    You could have a sprinkler/mist system instead perhaps ?!

    As one plan said, a mist system can be installed and you can retain the open plan nature of the house.

    We often use Plumis and can be installed in the kitchen tap so you won't even notice it.
