The staircase is a signature feature of many of our homes. Since the staircase is the part of the house that joins all of the floors and can usually be seen

from the entry, we can focus on creating a sculpture that makes a statement of our theme. Like the rest of the project, the staircase is developed using

our CADD system that is optimized with 3D technology, and when infused with our design skills, we can create a masterful staircase and rail system.

Once the design is established we build the 3D model, which enables us to figure the most complex geometry and the relationship to the materials used.

We then create fabrication drawings that allow our fabricators to easily understand the criteria, guaranteeing that you get exactly what you expected.

These precision drawings are created from the proven 3D model to ensure near perfect accuracy. In addition this will allow us to shop contractors and

suppliers to get you the ultimate design for the best possible cost. Below are examples of our 3D models, and the following pages will show several of

our completed staircases. This will give you the opportunity to preview our staircases prior to looking through our web portfolios.

Wire Frame 3D Model view of the T-Rex Stair found on page 4

The staircase opening extends from the basement all the way to the third floor, creating breathtaking

views in all directions. As you travel around the second floor hall, the staircase to the third floor bridges

over the stair opening with a view all the way to the basement. Spectacular! The treads and risers are

solid bamboo. The rail panels are a combination of bamboo rectangles of two different thicknesses with

sandblasted glass in the center, along with three solid stainless steel rods in an alternating pattern

between the panels. The posts are made from solid bamboo with the same pattern of rectangles in the

opposite direction. The handrail is custom made from solid bamboo as well. By using a combination of

the horizontal and vertical grain bamboo, this staircase is a spectacular custom feature!

Modern Industrial

Stair Tower

The alternating pattern of sandblasted and clear glass creates a

translucent effect for safety, while instilling a feeling of openness.

The blackened finished steel I beams and posts that support the

glass at the top and bottom in a natural aluminum shoe, shows

structure melded with beauty. Steel stringers support each run of

the bamboo stair treads from floor to landing, connecting each

floor. The western exterior wall has a pattern of rectangular shaped

windows that bring an abundance of light into the space. This light

is then distributed into the bedrooms, bathrooms, and closets

through sandblasted sections of glass. The landings and treads have

built-in lighting to gently illuminate the staircase below on each

floor, for a safe and pleasing descent. This bamboo, metal, and

glass staircase is an incredible focal point and feature of the home.

Illuminated Rail

Deco Classic

page 3

This illuminated rail has a continuous light

imbedded into the bamboo curb at the bottom of

the glass, which creates a delicate glow. At the

top, there are elongated panes of glass between

bamboo wood posts caped with a custom rail.

The curved rail has an alternating pattern of

sandblasted glass and stainless steel balusters. As

the staircase descends from the first floor to the

basement, it wraps around a curved wall with a

sleek pattern of lit rectangular shaped windows.

The balusters are a combination of cherry and

bamboo rectangles attached to stainless steel

cylinders, rippling around the staircase with a fan of

bamboo treads that cantilever at different amounts

over the curved stringer. The amazing array of

pendants float in the center, reflecting light as the

glass mosaic tile winds around the wall transitioning

from the outside to the inside to terminate at the

second floor.

The Schonbek Geometrix Pyramid light

was the inspiration for this solid cherry

rail, which has a diamond shaped

medalion of V-groove glass, framed in

wood. The horizontal stainless balusters

are turned diagonally and are joined by

tapered posts with stainless steel inlayed

at the top. This unique open riser detail

flows into the bamboo wood tread

seamlessly to the closed stringer as it

angles to the second floor bridge. W

With this custom designed steel curved

staircase, you won't lack a topic of

conversation with guests. The floating,

steel stair frame is welded with a natural,

polished finish, complimenting the solid

cherry stained mocha treads. This theme

continues throughout the upstairs bridge,

between the master suite and the kids’

bedrooms, providing a wide aerial view

over the dining room.

The oak, open stringer treads project from

the wall in a stepping pattern as the

stainless steel inlay adds a hint of modern-

ism, flowing into the base trim detail. The

custom cherry wood framed v-groved glass

is suspended by the round stainless steel

tube, intertwined to create a geometric

pattern that’s pleasing to the eye.

This custom welded stringer member is blackened steel,

hand polished to perfection, as the substantial cherry

wood treads float from the frame. The glass block wood

framed medallion floats in the center of the baluster

system with vertical square steel balusters, connected to a

Tudor style cherry wood top and bottom that span

between the support posts. As the steel I beam is a main

structural support for the new addition, the staircase

blends infrastructure with beauty.

This open, natural maple

staircase is set in a hexagonal

opening. Featured in the

center is a fireplace framed in

steel I beams, with an inlay of

slate to make up the hearth.

The flue for the fireplace is

hidden in a maple wood

frame, with an angle steel

metal frame accent and a

hi-tech cable lighting system.

This all integrates perfectly

into the kitchen, which has a

steel I beam soffit and is

continuous from the staircase

to the kitchen.

Bamboo cubed stair treads cantilever over a blackened steel I beam frame,

which is custom welded to a steel angle stringer and joined by two winders,

allowing for better utilization of the space; they ascend to the upstairs loft

area. This industrial looking, simple design gives a floating effect that

integrates nicely into the steel I beams and posts that are the

infrastructure of the lofts support.

A built-in shelf unit with sliding,

alternating smoked and

sandblasted glass doors utilizes

the space under the landing.

This open staircase extends from the basement’s

foyer slate tile floor, winding around to the second

floor, featuring travertine treads with a cherry wood

riser. The glass mosaic tile finished with cherry wood

trim glistens as it curves its way to the second floor overlooking the entry. The plastered adobe style wall has glass block accents and a rounded wall cap

between round posts. The open foyer is engulfed by a round turret of rectangular windows, with an elliptical array of can lights surrounding a chandelier.

This beautiful staircase in the two story open

foyer is the focal point when entering the home.

The solid limestone stair treads are surrounded

by the cherry wood stringer and risers, as the

iron baluster system extends into the cherry

wood rail. This encapsulates the traditional and

elegant style of this French Country home.

This antique spiral staircase was re-used from the existing house, then modified to integrate it into the new exterior, and finished with a steel plate wall taking you to the second floor terrace.

The cherry wood treads, stained mocha, form a three-sided angled staircase that coincides with the

octagon shaped maple posts, caped with cast aluminum. The round

Here we feature your more standard

staircase with a custom flair, taking a

dryall wall and adding a bamboo wood

cap, while integrating sandblasted glass

panels that transmit light from the stair

well window, and also includes a custom

bamboo wall mounted rail system.

This classic Victorian style rail

that resides in the Gregory

Inn Lodo in Denver, Colorado

is an absolute classic. The

ornate oak wood stringer and

endcaps glide into a classic

carpet runner. The rail goes

from the Turnabout to the

second floor, then around the

stair well, made of a Victorian

styled baluster and post

system that complements the

classic Victorian theme.
