Staircase design and construction encapsulates the many and varied eras of architectural styles.
Georgian, Victorian, Federation, Edwardian and other period styles are well defined and leave little scope for innovation.
Contemporary staircase design on the other hand challenges the designer and stairbuilder on a different level altogether.
If a customer requires a stair design to fit with a Victorian or Federation reproduction home, we have a wealth of experience and knowledge to draw from. After all, we've been building these designs for more than 80 years.
Contemporary or modern stair design lets the mind run free, or at least it should.
These designs can be gloriously simple using clean lines (hate to use clichés) and unusual materials. They can be curved, straight or just about anything you want. There are solid glass stairs, aluminium stairs, stainless steel stairs, stone stairs and of course timber stairs. Or materials can be combined in a staircase to bring together and compliment other materials or features of the building.
The staircase is often considered to be the link in the house or building, drawing the eye toward it because of it's central and strategic location. The staircase can be a triumph of modern architecture, a sculpture in its own right.
We love all stairs, but a beautifully designed and balanced contemporary staircase can make the hairs stand up on the back of our necks. There's nothing better.
