Choosing the right staircase for your home

Staircase is something that connect first and second floor, and it needs to be designed in the most appropriate way. It is so difficult to build a staircase unless we are building a new home or renovating. Sometimes there are stairscases that are ready to buy and install in our home. Always consider the phisical aspects of the staircase as well as how it may bring more value to our interior home. Stairs always have visual appeal that may enhance the ambience of interior design that we want.

Staircase usually take a lot of space in our home, that is why it is not very good to put a spiral staircase, for example, into a small area that it wukk iccyot ab area at keast sux feet (two meters) square. And this is sometimes a temptation to us. A metal or wood stair should be the most appropriate for small spaces, while spiral, curved, or straight stairs with solid banisters would be appropriate for large spaces.



If you already have existing staircases, it can be changed out of all recognition without too much difficulty. There are parts of staircase such as the banisters (handrails), the balusters (parts linking the handrail to the treads), or the newelposts (large pieces at the head, foot and middle of staircase) can be renewed. We can also bring decoration, different color paint, staining, polishing or covering it with materials like wallpaper. Handrails can be painted in contrasting colors to the walls as can any moldings or panels.
