Staircase

Staircase decoration

A staircase must therefore match with all the rooms it leads to.

It is like hanging between two worlds, that of the friendly living room, and the other of the more intimate rooms. Symbolically the staircase is an essential and practical space.

We can play the card of neutrality or on the contrary the contrast to decorate it.

Its risers will be covered with more or less precious woods, fabrics, carpets, or even more colorful earthenware, which will catch the light and create an original decor.

If it is white at the beginning, nothing is easier than to adorn it with colorful shades or to match it with the existing furniture.

Unless you choose to decorate it, on a few steps, with art objects, lamps, lanterns, or you choose to hang paintings or picture frames on its walls, giving cheerfulness and vivacity to the whole.

If it is not surrounded by walls but ramps, then the trend is towards materials like steel tube, metallic gray, rods, simple balustrades, transparent glass.

Very modern designs that fit perfectly with steps covered with blond woodwork.

The classy and chic effect is then guaranteed, also offering a great prospect to flood adjacent rooms with outdoor light.

Far from being trivial, a staircase has several uses, it is possible to create a library in the buttress of its steps, it is also possible to integrate lamps or leds that will diffuse their special atmosphere.

A space to be carefully studied to extract all its potential.
