Staircase - transitional wooden u-shaped open staircase idea in Austin with engineered wood floors

Floating above the kitchen and family room, a mezzanine offers elevated views to the lake. It features a fireplace with cozy seating and a game table for family gatherings. Architecture and interior design by Pierre Hoppenot, Studio PHH Architects.

This project blends warm wood with industrial style concepts for a result that transcends typical modern minimalism. Created with a visionary architect and builder, the four-level structure features thick solid oak treads with extended noses that float against finished poplar stringers. Open risers preserve light flow from the adjacent wall of windows. A horizontal stainless steel rod balustrade system flows from the lower-level recreation room to the fourth-level rooftop deck, creating visual continuity across the home's entire vertical span. The geometric design echoes custom millwork throughout the residence and connects the chef's kitchen and family room while celebrating natural light at every level. 1976-2026 © Century Stair Company

This new construction staircase showcases a clean, modern design that emphasizes openness, light, and architectural simplicity. The floating wood treads create a striking visual effect, appearing to hover effortlessly without traditional risers, which enhances the airy feel of the space. A sleek glass guardrail runs alongside the staircase, providing safety while maintaining unobstructed sightlines and allowing natural light to flow freely throughout the area. The staircase is anchored by a bold, dark structural spine that adds contrast and definition to the otherwise light, neutral palette. Its minimalist form complements the surrounding interior, seamlessly integrating with the open-concept living space. The use of warm wood tones on the steps introduces a touch of natural texture, balancing the modern materials like glass and metal. Positioned near a large window, the staircase benefits from abundant daylight, highlighting its craftsmanship and creating subtle shadows that enhance its sculptural quality. Overall, this staircase serves as both a functional element and a focal point, elevating the home’s contemporary aesthetic.

This family’s basement had become a catch-all space and was sorely underutilized. Although it was spacious, the current layout wasn’t working. The homeowners wanted to transform this space from closed and dreary to open and inviting. Specific requirements of the design included: - Opening up the area to create an awesome family hang out space game room for kids and adults - A bar and eating area - A theater room that the parents could enjoy without disturbing the kids at night - An industrial design aesthetic The transformation of this basement is amazing. Walls were opened to create flow between the game room, eating space and theater rooms. One end of a staircase was closed off, enabling the soundproofing of the theater. A light neutral palette and gorgeous lighting fixtures make you forget that you are in the basement. Unique materials such as galvanized piping, corrugated metal and cool light fixtures give the space an industrial feel. Now, this basement functions as the great family hang out space the homeowners envisioned.

Inspiration for a contemporary blue tile bathroom remodel in Phoenix with tile countertops and blue countertops

This contemporary kitchen features the “Como” door style by Artcraft Kitchens. The doors and drawers are finished in “Figured Pearl Gloss” laminate with an aluminum profiled edge. The counter tops are “Mocha” by Caesarstone with a glass tile back splash. The refrigerator is a 42” built-in by KitchenAid as are the ovens, dishwasher and induction cook top. The hood is by Faber. Aluminum framed glass door cabinets are the focal point as you enter the kitchen and the full height, aluminum door appliance garage hides all the appliances the client wanted hidden (notice the exposed KitchenAid, stainless steel mixer on the counter). The frosted glass, floating snack table provides convenient eating space for two and the stainless steel shelf over the t.v. provides an attractive display area.

APG Welding designed, fabricated, and installed this custom modern floating staircase with integrate LED lighting for a luxury residence in Lido Key, Florida. The project features precision-engineered floating stair treads, custom aluminum support construction, and glass railing to create a clean, modern look. Every staircase is built to fit the home's unique design while providing exceptional strength, durability, and craftsmanship.

Located in Menlo Park, California, this 3,000 sf. remodel was carefully crafted to generate excitement and make maximum use of the owner’s strict budget and comply with the city’s stringent planning code. It was understood that not everything was to be redone from a prior owner’s quirky remodel which included odd inward angled walls, circular windows and cedar shingles. Remedial work to remove and prevent dry rot ate into the budget as well. Studied alterations to the exterior include a new trellis over the garage door, pushing the entry out to create a new soaring stair hall and stripping the exterior down to simplify its appearance. The new steel entry stair leads to a floating bookcase that pivots to the family room. For budget reasons, it was decided to keep the existing cedar shingles. Upstairs, a large oak multi-level staircase was replaced with the new simple run of stairs. The impact of angled bedroom walls and circular window in the bathroom were calmed with new clean white walls and tile. Photo Credit: John Sutton Photography.
