What Is A Floating Staircase?
Floating staircases also known as a cantilever staircase are an architectural feature, that will create the impression that the steps are suspended in mid-air. This creates a more open air effect in any given space. It also makes the staircase more eye-catching in terms of design and is often a talking point when people first see them. One of the most distinguishing features of a floating staircase is its absence of conventional risers and stringers that are normally found on traditional staircases.
Why Choose A Floating Staircase?
1. The aesthetic appeal: Floating staircases will add a visual interest and sophistication to any home.
2. Because floating staircases have an open design, that allows the light to pass through them, it gives the impression of space in a room, where natural lighting may not be flooding in. This gives the illusion of space and can make the room seem larger and brighter.
3. Space Saving: The floating staircase design is particularly useful in smaller rooms; traditional stairs can take up a lot of room. They can also be tailored with a smaller footprint that allows for more effective use of space.
4. Floating staircases have long been associated with clean and modern design. Choosing this design can give you a more modern vibe and give the impression a property is on trend, it is often the preferred choice of forward thinking architects when they want a modern feel to a property.
5. A bold statement: Floating staircases make a strong statement which adds character and style to a building. Often seen as a work of art, floating staircases will showcase creative design and demonstrate excellent craftsmanship and originality.
