Window material

- Did the window have to be metal frame to meet code?

In our case the frame is wood. The glass is laminated for safety. The local inspector accepted these conditions.

- Hi and thank you for all the help you provide from answers related to this gorgeous home! Do you recall the riser height and/or how you achieved getting up to the second floor with only utilizing this small amount of stair case space in the living room? We are trying to achieve a similar look and are stumped by the stairs. Thanks in advance!

Stair landing is framed with 2x6 joists running the short direction. 12 risers at 7"5/8 give us the clearance to achieve 7' clear below.

Did you have the stairs treads installed before the planks on the wall

- I love this look and was curious as to whether or not you had the stairs installed first or if you did it afterwards? Thanks and beautiful design!!

What Houzz contributors are saying:

Cuppett likes designing homes where the stairs drop right into the kitchen. “It just feels comfortable and casual,” he says. This stairway also allows the family to stay connected to their children in the upstairs playroom. He added the same wood boards found on the dining room ceiling to the stairway wall for texture and to stand up to wear and tear. “Kids always like to run around the corner of the stairs and kick and grab hold of the wall,” he says.The newel post is a simple geometric play on a traditional design. “It was just a little whimsical gesture,” he says.
