Home design - transitional home design idea in San Luis Obispo

Crystal Gradation, 1921 by Paul Klee

Spanning three levels, this elegant modern staircase transforms light into a design element. Suspended by open risers, the dark wood treads appear to float between floors as natural light cascades from the top floor windows down through the entire stairwell. The horizontal stainless steel rods create clean, uninterrupted sightlines while emphasizing the architectural volume beneath the landings. The result is a vertical journey defined by transparency and light. 1976-2025 © Century Stair Company

Fan-shaped oak winder treads turn the staircase around a corner without a full rectangular landing. Open risers and white walls keep the compact turn visually light, while the natural wood grain highlights each tread’s shape. This detail shows the custom geometry where the stair changes direction. At Scandi Skies in East York, Toronto, Cedarstone Group Inc. connected a new second storey to the original bungalow with a custom open-riser staircase. Natural wood, slim black metalwork and clear sightlines carry the Scandinavian design through this structural home addition.

The main stair of this beachfront island home is comprised of a steel center stringer with 4” thick white oak treads and landings with custom stain and a glaze finish. Stair and balcony balustrades are welded aluminum posts and rails with clear, tempered glass infill and white oak cap rail with custom stained and glazed finish.
