These bespoke oak staircases are simply stunning. Three flights of stairs were designed with the clients, Mr & Mrs Coleman, for a substantial property in Essex. This has been one of our largest commissions and the final results were very rewarding.
The quality and finish achieved is compliment to both our staff and those of the Coleman’s and the ability to work together to achieve their design features within the space constraints we had, particularly headroom. In the wall string of all the stairs the client fitted small LED light fittings which create a stunning feature when dark.
The main Oak stair has a helical section on the bottom 6 treads with a bull nosed bottom tread. The cut strings have a decorative moulding which compliments the traditional Victorian cast balusters. The handrail was specially made to a “chunkier” section than normal and newel posts were hand carved by our craftsmen from 150mm square Oak. All the stairs were boarded and plastered on the underside in a traditional manner and painted white.
Cast Balusters
The stairs down to the pool and gym area have a kite section towards the bottom the design of the cast Victorian balusters, handrail and newels is continued. The stairs to the second floor was a conventional straight flight and again continued the design features. The light well at first floor level is complimented by the beautiful chandelier fitted by the client.
