Escalier sur palier de départ, balustrade verre et acier

Built in 1998, the 2,800 sq ft house was lacking the charm and amenities that the location justified. The idea was to give it a "Hawaiiana" plantation feel. Exterior renovations include staining the tile roof and exposing the rafters by removing the stucco soffits and adding brackets. Smooth stucco combined with wood siding, expanded rear Lanais, a sweeping spiral staircase, detailed columns, balustrade, all new doors, windows and shutters help achieve the desired effect. On the pool level, reclaiming crawl space added 317 sq ft. for an additional bedroom suite, and a new pool bathroom was added. On the main level vaulted ceilings opened up the great room, kitchen, and master suite. Two small bedrooms were combined into a fourth suite and an office was added. Traditional built-in cabinetry and moldings complete the look.

Solid Apollo LED. In this stairwell lighting installation, the owners wanted to add modern indirect lighting for a amazing custom effect. Here warm white LED strip lights were placed under the lip of each individual step and waterproof LED strip lighting was added under the railing for added lighting and protection for the strip light. The entire installation was connected to two Gecko Wireless One Zone Dimmers (one at the top of the steps, and one at the bottom) for a completely wireless installation as the Gecko acts like a remote control but looks like a modern wall dimmer.

A spiral staircase was a natural fit for this limited space. The spiral design builds on top of itself keeping the footprint to a small circle in the floorplan.
