Avenue B Development These are just standard, tongue and groove new pine floors with a medium brown stain. They turned out awesome - thanks for asking!
I'm wondering about the color of the brackets holding up the wall rail. are they satin nickel or similar. Thinking they are not dark enough for black. »
Great storage under stairs.... - Could something like this be done between the rafters of an attic? Specifically, a single story ranch style home with the traditional pulldown attic stairs for access.
Seems like it could be done,even without a back on the shelves, by attaching 2 x 4 to the rafters and then to the floor joists, then add plywood for the shelves. Just to get everything up off the "floor" of the attic and the insulation etc. Absolutely no space for walking or standing straight. Even in the center of the attice under the apex of the roof, still have to lean over to get to AC/heating unit.

Look under the stairs. “The space beneath the stairs is always underutilized,” says Hack. Built-in shelves or cabinetry can make all the difference.Use the ceiling. Keep stuff safe from groundwater by getting it off the floor. “Create a flange system with simple framing material to create tracks on the ceiling,” says Hack. “Package everything into airtight Tupperware containers and hang it in the flange system to utilize space that would never otherwise been functional.”
