This is a great example of how creative you can get with a staircase when you open your mind. For your purposes, look at how they painted the wood and the white.
Here's what I love about this: it's so simple. It's not that the staircase itself is crazy and fancy. It's just a stencil and a cool rope as a railing. Purely creative and totally easy to implement, but fantastic.
Everything is a bit more free and easy in a coastal home. Feel free to make some unconventional and eclectic moves, as this designer did with these stairs.
