Bell Lane Show Home
Made specially for a show home project, this staircase was created using the very latest trends and innovations in staircase design. The show home can be experienced via a 3D Virtual Tour, accessible via the link.
This closed string staircase is a mixed material project, featuring oak treads, oak risers, glass panel balustrades and chrome finished steel handrails.
The glass keeps the stairwell bright and welcoming, a popular choice for many modern homes. Looking down the stairwell, you are treated to a kaleidoscope of textures and warm colours as the timber, glass and steel combine for a delightful visual effect.
Of particular note in this design is the shadow groove under the lip of the treads. This provides an element of definition which is both visually interesting and helpful for identifying where the edge of the step is. The edge of the tread, where the “point” of the step is has also been rounded off with a 4mm pencil round for a subtle finish. The housing on the string was also cut to size rather than reaching the bottom of the strong, providing a neat and professional finish. The price covers the entire property, three flights of stairs.
