The centrum design is a great way to create a floating staircase with its central steel stringer. These treads are made from American Oak with a blonded finish but almost any timber can be used. The frameless glass balustrade fixed to the treads with SS fixings, keeps the stairwell simple with the emphasis on the stairs.

New staircase formed to provide access from existing first floor living space to the new formal living room at mezzanine level. The stair is made from douglas fir with a birch veneer ply balustrade. The clean lines of this stair sit quietly within the existing first floor room. We incorporated a continual shadow gap along the base of the plastered wall to create a floating stair effect. The addition of recessed plaster in wall lights look integral to the plastered wall.

This home is a modern farmhouse on the outside with an open-concept floor plan and nautical/midcentury influence on the inside! From top to bottom, this home was completely customized for the family of four with five bedrooms and 3-1/2 bathrooms spread over three levels of 3,998 sq. ft. This home is functional and utilizes the space wisely without feeling cramped. Some of the details that should be highlighted in this home include the 5” quartersawn oak floors, detailed millwork including ceiling beams, abundant natural lighting, and a cohesive color palate.

This bungalow was completely renovated with a 2nd storey addition and a fully finished basement with 9 ft. ceilings. The main floor also has 9 ft. ceilings with a centrally located kitchen, with dining room and family room on either side. The home has a magnificent steel and glass centrally located stairs, with open treads providing a level of sophistication and openness to the home. Light was very important and was achieved with large windows and light wells for the basement bedrooms, large 12 ft. 4-panel patio doors on the main floor, and large windows and skylights in every room on the 2nd floor. The exterior style of the home was designed to complement the neighborhood and finished with Maibec and HardiePlank. The garage is roughed in and ready for a Tesla-charging station.

Staircase Design Ideas

A staircase isn’t just a structural element that links two floors – it can also help define your style, make a statement, and turn your entryway into a grand entrance. There are a growing range of materials and staircase designs to cater to your personal style and the size of your space. Here are some quick tips to consider while browsing images of staircase designs on Houzz.

What type of staircase works best for me?

The first consideration when planning a stair design is space. A double-sided staircase, for instance, will only work in a large area; whereas an L-shaped staircase or straight staircase are more compact options. The next step in the stair design is deciding on a style. Elliptical or curved stairs offer elegance, while spiral stairs can appear more urban. If you want a contemporary design, floating stairs are a great way to circulate light.

What balustrade and handrail options are available?

Balustrades and handrails are important for safety but also allow you to get creative with your stair design. Many staircases are built up against a wall – if that’s the case, the wall itself can act as a balustrade; it will just need an attached handrail. Glass balustrades are great if you want to show off your staircase as an architectural feature, whereas a timber balustrade tends to be a more timeless option. Metal balustrades are versatile in that they can be industrial, elegant or quirky. Consider functionality, too, especially if you have kids. An open railing, for instance could become a safety hazard.

What type of material should I use for stair treads?

Timber stair treads are strong and timeless, but aren’t suited to those with indoor pets as they’ll show up scuffs. Carpeted or stone stair treads are more traditional options, whereas stainless steel and glass can be quite contemporary. Concrete stair treads are increasingly popular for those looking to create a sculptural masterpiece out of their staircase – just imagine the effect of floating concrete stairs, daringly cantilevered. Also consider using a combination of materials to create visual interest.
