White Staircase Ideas and Designs
Landis Architects | BuildersWe added a full two-story addition at the back of this house, maximizing space by including a small bump-out at the side for the stairs. This required demolishing the existing rear sunroom and dormer above. The new light-filled first-floor space has a large living room and dining room with central French doors. Modern stairs lead to an expanded second floor with a new primary suite with an en suite bath. The bath has a herringbone pattern floor, shower with bench, freestanding tub and plenty of storage.

The Carpet WorkroomIt’s #transformationtuesday which means we are sharing before and after photos of a #stairrunner project our installation team completed recently!
We interviewed the homeowner to learn more about how she discovered us and why she selected the style she chose for her stair runner! Here are is the response!
“I found you on Instagram from Candace of House of Paige (@_houseofpaige_)and also have seen Brenna Smith of Hope and Bay Design (@hopeandbay) go there too. You guys were local and I loved your instagram page - it was super easy to find inspiration ideas so I knew I needed to reach out.
We have two dogs and a toddler (with another baby on the way!) so we wanted something that would be durable but would match our style a bit more! We did Oil Nut Bay in Charcoal.
From my first visit to your work room to working with Billy over email, you made the process so easy! I really appreciated the honest feedback and opinions on the different styles we liked and if it would fit our lifestyle with dogs and kids at home. We must have had a dozen samples sent to us over the 2 months we worked together and it was just so easy to work with you virtually. We are so happy with the final product :)”
We thank every single one of you for sharing your story and experience with us at The Carpet Workroom!
Top Tread StairwaysSpace-saving staircase terminology
I normally call these Alternating-tread stairs, but there are other common terms:
• Space-saving Stair
• Alternating stair
• Thomas Jefferson Stair
• Jeffersonian staircase
• Ergonomic stair with staggered treads
• Zig-zag-style
• Boat Paddle-shaped treads
• Ship’s Ladder
• Alternating-tread devises
• Tiny-house stairs
• Crows foot stairs
Space-saving Stairs have been used widely in Europe for many years and now have become quite popular in the US with the rise of the Tiny House movement. A further boost has been given to the Space-saving staircase with several of the major building codes in the US allowing them.

Stalburg DesignA staircase is so much more than circulation. It provides a space to create dramatic interior architecture, a place for design to carve into, where a staircase can either embrace or stand as its own design piece. In this custom stair and railing design, completed in January 2020, we wanted a grand statement for the two-story foyer. With walls wrapped in a modern wainscoting, the staircase is a sleek combination of black metal balusters and honey stained millwork. Open stair treads of white oak were custom stained to match the engineered wide plank floors. Each riser painted white, to offset and highlight the ascent to a U-shaped loft and hallway above. The black interior doors and white painted walls enhance the subtle color of the wood, and the oversized black metal chandelier lends a classic and modern feel.
The staircase is created with several “zones”: from the second story, a panoramic view is offered from the second story loft and surrounding hallway. The full height of the home is revealed and the detail of our black metal pendant can be admired in close view. At the main level, our staircase lands facing the dining room entrance, and is flanked by wall sconces set within the wainscoting. It is a formal landing spot with views to the front entrance as well as the backyard patio and pool. And in the lower level, the open stair system creates continuity and elegance as the staircase ends at the custom home bar and wine storage. The view back up from the bottom reveals a comprehensive open system to delight its family, both young and old!
