Stairs

We have gathered images of heart-stopping stairs that you will want in your homes. This transitional space has many aesthetic possibilities and is generally underestimated. They tend to go unnoticed, with a style that is usually very common. However, this time we have a variety that will surprise you. The stairs give personality to the houses and facilitate the movement of people. This is why they are practical, but also decorative.

The staircase, in addition to fulfilling the function of connecting two or more levels in a house, is also a very important decorative structural element, so below, we will show you a series of modern stairs for interiors, so that you can find the most suitable one. for your home.

Here we have wonderful very modern stairs, but with different designs and various materials. They all have their charm.

In a residential architectural design, consisting of two floors, the staircase can become a true work of art. Corridors, lobbies and stairs, as good transitional spaces, have the function of connecting spaces and harmonizing with all the environments to which they have access. It is therefore important that its design is versatile and easily combinable.

The stairs also have an aesthetic value that few elements in the home can match, due to their multilevel quality and the games of angles, lights and shadows inherent to them. It is a shame to waste the enormous artistic possibilities that stairs can bring to our home and that is why I give it importance.

Interior architects can advise us as to what would be the best option for each space, achieving a harmonious and functional result.

How to choose a ladder

1- Set a budget

There are a lot of factors to consider when choosing a ladder. One of the most important factors in choosing a designer staircase is the budget. It can guide you in choosing the materials to use and the style. It is necessary to find out about different materials, types and styles, to get an approximate idea of the budget that will be needed for its construction.

2-Available space

Space is another important factor. Knowing exactly what space you have will help you choose the type of ladder that is neither too small nor too large for your specific needs. This is especially important for small spaces. In case you have a large space, you can opt for a wider and more striking decorative staircase.

3- Ladder safety

Safety should also be considered as it is a vital factor in the choice of the ladder. The best stairs are those with a landing, followed by L-shaped or U-shaped stairs, if they are not very long, the landing is not needed. In general, stairs with a landing are used in public spaces such as schools, hospitals, and hotels.

Comfortable stairs

The comfort offered by the stairs is also important. If comfort is the main thing for you, then you should opt for a wide staircase, which has a less steep rise.

Keep in mind that it is more difficult to climb a spiral or circular staircase. It should also be taken into account if there are children in the house. There are some stairs that can be really dangerous for them.

Stair lights and materials

In reality, there is not a very wide variety of materials that can be used for the construction of a staircase. Wood, marble, steel or even concrete can be used. There are even glass stairs that are very stylish and modern, but a bit more expensive.

The wooden staircase is generally used in interiors with a more contemporary or minimalist design. The materials you choose must be in harmony with the interior, in addition to providing quality and durability. It is important that the ladder is strong and resistant to avoid possible accidents. As there is not a great diversity of materials, the use of lights becomes relevant to make your staircase something different.

You can put lights on each step, on the railing or on the side of the stairs as in the photos. If you put spotlights next to the stairs it gives the sensation of depth. There is a very nice effect, as if the ladder were floating, it would seem that the ladder is separated from the wall.

My fanaticism for lights is well known, you can see this in my articles "The importance of lights", "Lights with movement sensors" and "Remote controlled rgb lights."

Stair styles

Below, we show you a few photos of various types of modern stairs, in different materials and formats, to help you choose the one that best suits your needs.

Modern stairs

Although the position of the stairs can vary a lot, in general it is a question of placing them in a place where they do not take up too much space. Also, when it comes to choosing a ladder, you need to consider all the necessary details, because it is really very difficult to change it. So please plan everything well in advance to choose the right measurements and style for your family and home.

"U" shaped, "L" shaped

In addition to the materials, you can also choose between different styles and designs. The ones most used in homes are: linear or single section stairs, in the shape of a "U", in the shape of an "L", oblique, circular. The design that is chosen will depend on the available space and the interior decoration of your house or apartment. The spiral staircase is perhaps the most suitable form for small interiors.

Stairs with railing

If you are going to opt for a staircase with a balustrade or railing, make sure that it is strong enough to support the necessary weight. These elements should also blend well with the interior design. Lights can also be incorporated and it looks great.
