Custom-made stair with off the shelf parts. The steel beam, flat bar, and round bar balusters were purchased at a local steel warehouse and the treads were pre-cut from a local home improvement store. end result is a custom look for the same price as a traditional enclosed framed stair.

Location: New York, NY, United States This Loft was tastefully renovated back in the '90s, but was due for an update and an expansion of the kitchen and dining areas to accommodate the client's cooking skills and entertaining needs. EnlargIing the island and adding cabinetry to delineate the office, bar and dining areas was a priority. The bathroom was updated to feel like a tranquil spa with beautiful new tile, plumbing fixtures and cabinets. Our biggest challenge was coordinating the entire renovation while our client was out of town for the Summer! Photographed by: James Salomon

The client had us remove an existing, poorly installed water feature. Had to cut into paver patio and create new shape for new water feature. Waterfall cascades over rocks into fish pond with plantings. Amazing before and after! www.SharperCut.com
