A custom, laser cut railing was designed with a Queen Anne’s lace pattern, a plant beloved by butterflies and bees. The railing carries the natural, plant and pollinator themes from the downstairs into the upper areas of the home, illuminated by tulip sconces. The open patterning invites light to travel through the staircase. The design encourages a moment of pause and appreciation while moving through the day’s routines. The stairs are made with the same FSC certified reclaimed wood found throughout the home’s flooring. A thin profile and and white powder coating keep the metal railing light and airy.
