The Contender Curved Staircase is the dramatic helical evolution of Zakuna’s award-winning Central String Staircase, bringing the same engineering excellence to a sweeping curved configuration.
This stunning design features a single curved central stringer that spirals gracefully through the space, creating a breathtaking focal point that commands architectural attention. Laser-cut from premium steel, the curved string is self-supporting with no visible fixings, maintaining the minimalist aesthetic that defines the Contender family. The helical profile creates an impression of movement and elegance, making it an exceptional choice for luxury homes, high-end apartments, and prestige commercial spaces where the staircase is intended to be a design statement. Available in any RAL colour, stainless steel, Corten steel, or galvanised steel, the Contender Curved Staircase offers extensive colour and finish customisation. Glass balustrades complement the curved aesthetics, whilst treads in timber, glass, or solid surface materials maintain the contemporary feel.
The Contender Curved Staircase proves that precision engineering can achieve extraordinary visual drama. The curved central string is laser-cut to exacting tolerances, creating a helical form that is both structurally robust and visually breathtaking.
