Your staircase will have a big impact on defining the feel and flow of your home, and few designs have the same striking wow factor as a cantilevered style. A lack of structure beneath the steps creates the illusion of a floating flight, which will leave visitors in awe, trying to work out how it’s being supported.
Selecting a style
Designs range from minimalist open treads (gaps between the steps) with glass balustrades that are barely visible, through to solid structures that wind upwards, topped with elaborate handrails for extra flourish. The right design for you will depend on the style of your house, the space available and if you’re able to put the appropriate supports in the adjacent wall.
Freestanding cantilevers need to be self-supporting, which makes it even more important to chat with an established specialist who assist in getting the technical details bang on.
