Oak Open Plan Staircase – Free Standing Glass

Design:

A contemporary open-plan staircase designed to complement both the traditional timber beams and the modern interior of the barn conversion. The use of frameless glass balustrades and glass stub risers keeps the overall look minimal, allowing light to pass freely through the space. The design creates a seamless transition between levels, ensuring the staircase enhances rather than dominates the room.

Layout:

Positioned alongside full-height glazing, the staircase is designed to maximise natural light throughout both floors. The open-plan arrangement allows the staircase to return into the living space, reducing its visual weight and improving flow within the home. The configuration ensures an unobstructed connection between the hallway and upper gallery.

Materials:

Crafted from timber selected to match the existing structural beams, the staircase is finished with a subtle stain to achieve a consistent tone throughout the property. Frameless glass balustrades and glass stub risers are used to maintain openness while meeting building regulations. The combination of natural timber and clear glass creates a balance between traditional and modern materials
