Wiedemann Architects LLCTo create a more open plan, our solution was to replace the current enclosed stair with an open, glass stair and to create a proper dining space where the third bedroom used to be. This allows the light from the large living room windows to cascade down the length of the apartment brightening the front entry. The Venetian plaster wall anchors the new stair case and LED lights illuminate each glass tread.

Stairs are one of the most basic indoors and outdoors architectural feature that are a must both functionally and esthetically speaking.
In landscaping beside their obvious usefulness in helping you access various elevations on your property they will also allow you to divide and breakup various section of your outdoor design, they'll help you redirect your line of sight to specific focal points of interest and by themselves can make a powerful design statement that symbolizes hospitality and openness towards guests.
When creating staircases out of our antique stone building elements we focus on waring all of those hats that your stairs need to ware in order to serve their intended multipurpose role.
Most don't dwell or even think twice about this seemingly rudimentary and basic building element that on its surface seems unchanged from the days of the Roman empire.
However we've identified various stairs designs and cataloged over 30 divers stone stairs type that forms the bulk of our stone stair library. Here are a few that are noteworthy of mentioning:
1- The thick hexagon staggered stepping stone stairs ideal for any ancient, whimsical, 17th century English or Asiatic landscaping themes you may be using in your outdoors.
2- The 3" and 5" Thick foundation slab slices that are massive cut-out chunks from salvaged cornerstone foundation blocks that used to be laid underneath old farmhouses and building structures in medieval and renaissance Europe before the invention of modern cement and steel foundations.
3- The double stacked antique reclaimed limestone stair edge and risers. All made out of our various lines of very hard antique limestone paves that defies all weather types from sub-Saharan to Tundra climates and perfect for both indoors and outdoors applications.
4- Full blocked 8" thick (or more) )stairs with both the squared backs and the slanted backs ideal for the outdoors or for creating a self-supporting structure that will allow architects and designer an extended range of design options and usages.
5- Limestone stairs with Encaustic Tile raisers ideal for any coastal Spanish or Italian style home.
6- Thick and solid single pieced bull-nosed stairs and raisers flanked by wrist high limestone balustrades when used on the outdoor entryway staircase of your home.
All of those types of stairs and countless many others will play an invisible role in defining the character and feel of your future home.
MAKHNO studioThe essence of modern minimalism, anchored by a sculptural, white spiral staircase that ascends with an air of weightlessness, creating a dramatic statement against the backdrop of expansive, black-framed glass walls. These transparent barriers blur the lines between the interior and the verdant outdoors, inviting an abundance of light to enhance the room's airy feel. Accentuating the room's aesthetic are select sculptures that lend an eclectic touch to the otherwise sleek and polished environment.
