A Stunning Entrance

Stairs, staircases, or even just a few steps can make such a silent announcement upon anyone appearing on them.  Whether the descending of a young teenage girl to meet her date, or a bride seemingly gliding down a grand set of stairs toward her groom, the announcement of something special, something unique, can be tied to the sole ability of the architect’s staircase.

While simple steps can be a default, there are so many design elements from which to choose that can speak volumes of the home’s inhabitants.  The railing, the floor coverings, the lighting, what lines the wall – the choices are quite numerous.

For this week’s Rooms of Inspiration, I’ve collected a handful of stairs, some continue on for more than just a few floors and one is simply a few steps up to a dining room.  However, they all appear to make their own statement.  Enjoy.
