The staircase for this home descends into the family game room. During construction, the client opted for a more architectural partition at the lower stair section in lieu of a traditional handrail. We worked with the client and interior designer to develop a construction drawing for this detail, from specification of size, milling and precise placement of the materials. The partition is finished to match the white oak stair treads and risers. Looking beyond the partition, a custom brass safety rail adds a unique touch to the stairway.
