Staircases
Often the most striking internal feature of a house, the stairs, must match the overall ambition of a home. They can be used to set the internal theme, their design being reflected in the skirting, architraves and doors throughout. Anything is possible: the quasi-industrial look of a contemporary interior, the simplicity of an elegant Georgian staircase with a flowing continuous handrail, through to a decorative Victorian stair with heavy panelled newel posts and double bull-nosed steps.
Contemporary Stairs
- Generally constructed in a feature timber such as European Oak or Walnut, as the features and grain of the timber enhances the overall design
- Often combined with stainless steel fixings and glass ballustrading to dramatic effect
- Finishes can be manufactured to reflect design features in your skirtings, architraves and internal doors
Curved Feature Stairs
- Curved to any radius and can be supported or ‘floating’
- Choose from a semi-painted finish or left natural to be varnished on site
- Available in any hardwearing timber such as European Oak, Ash, American Black Walnut, Iroko, Sapele
- Can be finished with ‘cut strings’ and overlapping treads
- Usually finished with decorative moulded continuous handrail, rather than Newel Posts, featuring ‘Monkey’s Tail’ volutes, wreaths, ramps and easings, to ensure a free-flowing and elegant look.
- Design ranges include turned or square timber spindles or, for a more decorative finish, cast iron painted ballustrading.
