This U-shaped, floating staircase was a renovation that was designed as an entryway masterpiece. Our Stairworks in-house designer worked closely with the homeowner to get the desired result, which the owners were very happy with. The interior style of the home was modern contemporary, so the single stringer stairs were the only steel features in the home, making them a true focal point. The benefit of using steel in open risers with a glass balustrade is the fact that it lets so much light through, a great benefit to any home capitalising on natural light. However, when using glass there can be design challenges, which is why we used oak tread caps to cover the glass fixings for a smarter finish.

The owners brief for this small courtyard property was to create a modern japanese styled garden with boardwalks, tiles and a stone wall. James McLean from JD Landscape Architecture produced the designs to meet the clients brief and through the design/build process we looked at different materials and styles to fit with our clients budget and taste. The site had poor soil and drainage issues, with the stairs becoming a waterfall during heavy rain so there was a lot of work at the front end working on drainage solutions and amending the soil so we could establish the garden. The finished elements include a hardwood garapa deck and boardwalks, outdoor porcelain tiles and a paradise quarry shist stone wall. The planting consists two large feature trees (a flowering cherry and japanese maple), along with rhododendron, gardenia, scleranthus, azalea and others to complement the japanese style theme. To complete the project we refreshed the upper vege garden area with a new pebble path, macrocarpa raised vege beds and limestone paths.
