Two-Flight Staircase – Weybridge

Zakuna proudly worked with award winning design led architecture and interior design studio Concept Eight Architects for this exciting renovation project, to extend and remodel a luxury family home in Weybridge, Surrey. The brief was to create a contemporary feel, whilst keeping as much natural light flowing through the interior as possible, a challenge that called for a staircase with an open, airy character.

Contender Staircase

Our award winning Contender Staircase was specified for its modern design with central steel string, clean lines and glass balustrades, all qualities that aligned perfectly with the project’s vision of openness and light. The two flight Contender Staircase looks stunning from all angles and with no visible fixing element gives the look of a seamless ‘floating staircase’, exuding quality and architectural confidence.

The black steel central spine is understated, subtly blending into the background, matching the black interior steel and glass doors for complete design cohesion. This deliberate coordination between staircase and door elements was central to the Concept Eight Architects brief, ensuring that every structural and decorative detail contributes to a unified interior language. Black button fixings to the glass balustrade give a stylish appearance, whilst complementing the interior design scheme with their refined, minimal profile.

Stained Oak treads are 40mm thickness with a step nose, perfectly colour matched to the owner’s flooring. This seamless transition between staircase and floor creates a natural flow throughout the ground and first floor levels. A bespoke solid tread to the lower step creates an interesting design feature and an inviting approach to the stairs, gently widening the base for a welcoming, generous gesture.

Matching rectangle Stained Oak handrails and Stained Oak aprons around the openings are all colour matched to complete the interior design. The aprons provide a clean, finished edge to each floor opening, concealing structural elements whilst maintaining the warm timber palette that runs throughout. The result is a renovation where the new staircase feels entirely at home within the remodelled space, a testament to the collaborative approach between Zakuna and Concept Eight Architects.
