December 2024 – Floating Staircase Harpenden

Following the purchase of a property, our client embarked on a comprehensive renovation to modernise each room into a crisp, open, and clean living space. The front hallway was previously a closed and dark area, featuring an existing closed riser staircase. The client’s plan included the installation of a rooflight above and a bright, open-plan staircase to illuminate the hallway with natural light.

The chosen staircase was our WF floating staircase, a distinctive cantilever-effect design with treads extending from a wall stringer, supported by vertical stainless steel spindles. It is our most open and light-enhancing stair design, capable of transforming any hallway. The client opted for Ash treads and handrails to complement the timber doors, and a white wall stringer to augment the staircase’s floating appearance, merging seamlessly with the white wall.

This staircase featured a quarter-turn design, and the client selected the elegant curved handrail option to add a graceful arc to the turn.  A little section of landing balustrade was added upstairs to protect the opening.

The developer doing the refurb work took these pictures after completion and forwarded them soon after.
