Glorify Your Home With An Oak Staircase

When redecorating or renovating a house, it is so easy to focus so much on the basics and the most important tasks that we forget about the other improvements which give our homes character and personality. We will think a lot about the areas and rooms which we use the most, such as the kitchen, living room and main bedrooms, and spend a lot of time and effort choosing colour schemes, flooring, wallpaper, and furnishings for these rooms. Understandably the main rooms in your home are what you are most likely to give the most thought to; however, remembering to focus on other areas can really make a difference to the overall look of your home.

The front entrance of your home is the area which makes the first impression of your home. In a typical house, when you walk in the front entrance, you are faced with the staircase. Although the staircase is a functional structure and we don’t normally tend to think of it as a feature, when chosen well, the staircase can make a huge difference to your home. A beautifully designer oak staircase looks stunning in all houses, so long as you take care to choose the right style and design.

You can choose an oak staircase in various designs, ranging from very simple styles to more ornate grand styles.  Large impressive oak staircases are ideal for bigger homes and period, but if you live in a smaller house, or a more modern house, a grand staircase would most likely overpower your hallway and look out of place. You would be best advised to opt for a simple and elegant design of staircase which would still stand out as a beautiful feature.

Oak staircases are made by hand by skilled carpenters and joiners who take care to ensure that everything is made to the highest quality. Good oak timber is used, and you can choose from a variety of shades. Dark oak is very impressive and light oak looks attractive in all houses. When choosing your oak staircase, you can choose from a range of handmade components so you can have your staircase exactly as you would like it. 

You can choose various designs of banister posts, spindles, steps, brackets and banister post caps.

A traditional bespoke oak staircase fitted into any home will last for many many years, both as a functional structure and a stunning feature.

Bespoke Staircases Create An Attractive Impression

There are many aspects of home improvement that are often overlooked but actually essential in adding that special finishing touch to your home. We tend to focus on the main rooms of the house, for example, the sitting room, the kitchen, the dining room, and main bedrooms, as these are the rooms in which we spend most of our time. But it is the entrance to your home which you walk into at the end of the day and which any visitors see first, so it creates an initial impression of your house.

In most of our houses, when you step into the front hall, you immediately see the staircase. Often we overlook the stairway and tend not to draw much attention to it as a feature, but your stairway can actually be an attractive feature in any home. Fitting a handmade bespoke wooden staircase will make your home stand out and create an impression on anyone.  Bespoke staircases are impressive and available in a number of styles, sizes and designs, making them perfect for all types of houses. You can choose from the simplest to the grandest styles depending on your preferences and on the size and style of your house. Traditional style wooden staircases are a popular choice as they can be fitted into both modern and old houses very effectively. If you want a wooden staircase with a more stylish updated look, then you can opt for a simplistic more modern staircase design.

Not only are bespoke wooden staircases attractive and impressive, they Are also very high quality and last a good many years. They are handmade by experienced and professional joiners and built to last. The wood used is of the best quality and finish ensuring that every staircase is perfect for your home.

You may be having difficulties visualising how you would fit a bespoke staircase onto your home, or wondering what style to choose, but you can receive advice and guidance from staircase manufacturers as to how a wooden staircase would work in your home. They also offer repair work and renovation for period wooden staircases, and have the facilities to work with both listed and non listed buildings.

Unique Features of A Bespoke Staircase

Staircases are one of the most interesting and fascinating parts of any house, especially if they are made from exotic material. Teak, oak, pine, granite, stone and marble are one of the more common materials used in most of the stair construction throughout the world. But let’s face it, how many people can actually afford a granite staircase?

Bespoke is a term that refers to a British slang meaning custom made to suit the client. A bespoke staircase is a staircase that is somewhat custom made to suit the owner’s wants or needs. They say that a staircase a way to judge the class of a house. It may be expensive, but investing in a custom bespoke staircase will definitely bring big bonus points and improve first impressions. But who does one see to construct and design a bespoke staircase?

Usually interior designers or architects would be glad to design a staircase that would best suit your house. Just remember that staircases need space, depend on the style and design, you may need a little to a lot of extra room. There are also a myriad of materials to choose from, some materials best complement ones house for example. A nice white house would look better with a marble staircase with nice wooden railings. Whereas a wooden house would look much better with a sullen looking wooden staircase. Don’t forget that there are also a variety of different styles of banisters and spindles to choose from. Another thing to take into consideration Is whether you want your stairs to be covered in carpet or not, carpets are good in cold countries where during winter the floor becomes really cold. Though carpets are not always practical especially in a house with a lot of kids, as they will often get stained or eventually get ruined. Staircases also come in a variety of shapes, from those grand staircases which showcase the lavishness of the household, to the simpler L shaped staircases.

At the end of the day, a bespoke staircase will definitely make your house homier to you and your guests. If you can manage to find someone to do it, you will definitely enjoy your house much more. Guests will definitely compliment you on your excellent choice of interior design, and most definitely if you choose the right designer, your bespoke staircase should complement your house nicely.

Staircases

 Staircases are a necessary component of any house (except of course in the cases of bungalows) and yet they are an often overlooked and ignored part in any decoration or renovation project and as a result are often little more than just boring slats of wood that are haphazardly constructed then whitewashed. It is only right that this near travesty can be remedied as many joiners, apart from taking part in large projects such as loft conversions or even entirely new building projects, are able to offer the building of ornately designed staircases and banisters to suit all locations, such as following loft conversions and renovation projects, that make your staircases talking points of your home, rather than just a necessary feature of the home that merits little attention.

 Many people are not aware of the vast range of designs that are available and can be utilised in the design of bespoke staircases. For example, there are many designs of ‘cap’ (the items that rest on top of the balusters at either end of the staircase) including ‘newel caps’ in the shape of acorns, spheres and mushrooms as well as a wide selection of ‘flat caps’ (from the ‘standard’ design to those of ‘ovolo’, ‘classic’ and ‘regal’ design). There is also a selection of handrails that is considerably larger than most people would have imagined, with designs ranging from the standard shape to those with imaginative names such as ‘Ranch Style’, ‘Pigs Ear’ and the cylindrical ‘Mopstick’ design.

 There are even selections of the style of steps that can be constructed into your own bespoke staircase (that can range from the rounded ‘Bull Nose’ step to the arched ‘Bow’ Shape). Also (as can be guessed from reading the above), there are many designs of spindles to choose from in designing your own unique staircase. Such decisions should not be taken lightly as electing for one design over another can completely change the aesthetic of your staircase as well as potentially changing that of the surrounding location. This is due to the subtle differences between each design of each individual component (as shown by the differences between the ‘Georgian Turned Spindle’, the ‘Colonial Turned Spindle’, the ‘Colonial Turned Fluted Spindle’ and the ‘Palace Turned Fluted Spindle’.

 Hopefully this article has stirred some interest in this topic and more people will take an interest in the construction and design of this undeniably important feature of most homes.

Benefits of Wooden Staircases

Staircases have always been one of the major center points of any household. Whether you live in an elegant Beverly Hills mansion or a small modest two story house it would be a good idea to take into consideration the benefits of getting a wooden staircase.

A wooden staircase is probably the cheapest set of staircases you can get, of course this is also dependent on the type of wood you get.

Wood on the other hand does not require extra ordinary tools; most wood sculptors manage to do well with a hammer and a chisel.

A wooden staircase is also always been associated with wealth and opulence; houses in the Victorian times had elegantly polished and crafted banisters along with need bezels and columns. There are a variety of wood colors to choose from, ranging from light coppery brown to a dark ebony color. Wooden staircase can also come in a variety of finishes, from the sanded and polished to the varnished and wood treated staircases. Each of which have its own corresponding benefits.

If you live in a household with kids, it would be a good idea to get a wooden staircase as kids tend to have accidents around staircases, whether it is carrying a plate of food or spilling a beverage; clean-up can be a nightmare. Imagine if this was carpet, or worse marble or granite, wood can easily be wiped off, and if you coat the wood with a water resistant layer, it should prevent moisture from seeping in and destroying the wood. This definitely makes clean up easy and relatively painless.

Hardwood staircases are another good option, compared to most of the common wood, they are harder, have a better look and often have interesting patterns. Oak, Pine and Redwood are a few to name for you to consider but there are plenty of other varieties of wooden staircase in which you as an individual can choose from.

So if you are planning to renovate your house anytime soon, take into consideration that wooden staircases may be the best possible option for you if you want your house to look nice not only to you but your family and friends.

Oak Staircases

A staircase is a staircase, right? Okay well actually it’s not really that easy. It is known for sure that a staircase is used to bridge the gap between two vertical areas. This is generally a larger vertical yet with the construction of steps and eventually a staircase that gap is solved. Staircases can be any design that you choose them to be. They can be straight, rounded or a combination of both.

When talking about a home the staircase is usually the first thing a person sees when they enter the home. The design of the staircase can totally lay the style for the whole home. You can have oak staircases, metal, plastic to just name a few. The size, style, materials and color of each staircase can say many words. In many older movies elaborate staircases were used to pronounce people and display their leaving. Such was the case in Snow White when she leaves the ball and hence her glass slipper on the staircase.

Over the years designs for staircases have changed. Oak staircases have always and continue to be popular. The usage of material would also depend on whether the staircase was inside or outside. The style and the materials used will say a lot about the staircase. In most cases a staircase is what brings the whole structure of the house or the building together. It is the link between the building and home to join the structure together.

Many things would be considered when designing a staircase. What material would be better? Would oak staircases fit the whole plan of the structure?  How big it is? What type of usage will it get on a daily basis? Is the need for more practical or maybe more modern? Is the staircase the main focal point of the structure? All of these things need to be considered. Depending on the size of the project for the staircase you may have a designer or even an architect working on this. Or it may be as simple as laying some concrete or hammering some wood together.

Regardless of whether it be oak staircases, metal or cement one it will be the right one for your plans. Either way if help is needed there are many places available to assist with this. Many local home stores will be lots of help. If it’s more advanced than this then there are also many skilled trades’ people able to assist. The internet is also a wonderful place to find out lots of great information. Really makes one think when asked “a staircase is just a staircase right?”

Staircases can be straight, round a combination of the two or anything the designer chooses.

If one is referring to a home usually upon entering the staircase is one of the first things that people see. The design of a staircase can literally lay the style for the whole home. Depending on the style, size, materials and color much can be said from a staircase. In many older movies elaborate staircases designs were used to introduce characters dramatically into the movie. I am sure most everyone remembers Snow White’s descent on the staircase from the ball where she leaves he glass slipper.

Over the years the designs for staircases has become quite elaborate in many homes. As well as the style of the staircase the materials one uses will say a lot as well. Staircases can be made from metal, wood, cement and even glass to name a few. As well as in homes in many new buildings built the design of the staircase is very important. It is basically what brings the whole structure together whether it is a home or a building. It is the link between the joining of each floor to have the structure complete.
Many things would be considered when designing a staircase. How big it is? What type of usage will it get on a daily basis? Is the need for more practical or maybe more modern? Is the staircase the main focal point of the structure? All of these things need to be considered. Depending on the size of the project for the staircase you may have a designer or even an architect working on this. Or it may be as simple as laying some concrete or hammering some wood together.

Either way if help is needed there are many places available to assist with this. Many local home stores will be lots of help. If it’s more advanced than this then there are also many skilled trades’ people able to assist. The internet is also a wonderful place to find out lots of great information. Really makes one think when asked “a staircase is just a staircase right?”

Staircase Design

There are many ways to create the ultimate conversation piece in a new home. Some homeowners opt for unique furniture and accessories to do the trick. Others opt for a single element such as the staircase design to win the hearts of visitors and spark conversation. Poor choices in other elements such as paint color, window treatments and furniture placement can be overlooked if a spectacular staircase design is the centerpiece of the home. Some homeowners are unfortunate enough to be stuck with a traditional staircase design. Others have the luxury of being able to experiment with modern designs and embellishments.

Staircases were engineered for one simple reason; to bridge a large vertical distance by skillfully breaking it into smaller distances known commonly as steps. Over the years, staircase design has evolved tremendously. In both household and commercial construction, staircases have taken on a life of their own.  A staircase design   may be curved, spiral, circular or floating and constructed from wood, iron, concrete or a combination of all three. 

For new constructions, it is crucial for the homeowner to inquire about the building regulations, which may vary from state to state or country to country. For safety and basic ergonomic reasons, there are key measurements which must be taken into consideration for persons to be able to properly utilize a staircase.  Most regulatory bodies willingly provide information about the minimum and maximum measurements that should be included in a staircase design. Elements such as the run, rise, tread depth, slope, headroom and walkline are important and critical to the construction of a proper staircase.

Just as important as the architect or draftsman responsible for the staircase design is the contactor that will be responsible for the construction of the actual staircase. Having to rebuild a staircase post-construction can be both inconvenient and costly. It is important that a competent contractor is hired to carry out the job. Even in the absence of the architect or draftsman, the contractor should be able to read and understand the basics of the staircase design.

 Some homeowners may opt for a simple staircase design; others may go the route of something a bit more elaborate and dramatic. Regardless of the choice, the journey to a unique, functional, ergonomically friendly and regulation staircase begins with the staircase design.  There is no harm in being creative and experimenting, within the confines of the law of course!
