Staircase with Flared Landing Design – Essex
Contemporary interior design, Essex
We are delighted with this installation for a luxury contemporary home in Essex, where our staircase and interior doors have been designed to create an interior of real distinction. The generous proportions of the hallway provided an ideal setting for a free-standing staircase that could serve as a true architectural centrepiece.
Contender Staircase
Our award winning Contender Staircase stands magnificently in the centre of the hallway with its flared configuration, creating a beautiful focal point at both floor levels. This stunning staircase is flared on the lower steps, creating a feeling of grandeur and an inviting approach that draws you naturally towards the first tread.
The minimalistic design of glass with button fixings and chunky 100mm thickness Smoked Oak treads contrasts with the white steel central string, giving the appearance of a floating staircase. This interplay between the substantial timber treads and the slender central spine is central to the Contender’s appeal, creating a visual tension that is both striking and elegant.
Curved tinted glass balustrades with stainless steel handrails transcend to a spectacular open landing, with further glass balustrades surrounding the stairwell. The curved glass elements required precision engineering to achieve the flowing lines that characterise this installation, each panel individually templated and manufactured to ensure a perfect fit. At the upper level, the open landing offers dramatic views down through the stairwell, reinforcing the sense of light and space that defines this home.
Designo Inlaid IN100 Interior Doors
A suite of pre-hung Designo Inlaid IN100 Interior Doors were also installed to complete the design scheme and add a further touch of elegance to the interior. These doors were specified for their simple and classic inlay door design, a refined detail that elevates each doorway.
The pre-hung door sets, with our Architrave system, were manufactured in Torino Ash with four equally spaced horizontal grooves, 5mm wide. Stainless steel inlays were set in the grooves, sitting flush to the door surface for a sleek, tactile finish. Modern stainless steel door handles complement the style and add the perfect finishing touch, echoing the stainless steel handrails of the Contender Staircase for complete design cohesion throughout the property.
