| Stairway Placement and
Elegant Design |
By Greg Vanden Berge
One of the best pieces of furniture in anyone's home is
going to be their stairway. Most stairways are centrally located and
visible the moment that you open up the front door.
There is a reason for this and most architects don't want to share the
secrets with designers or other professionals in the business.
Your stairway is a focal point for anyone entering your home and is
usually designed in an elegant manner to make the house look more
attractive. This has been an architectural secret for years.
Think about this for a moment, the next time that you walk into a
two-story home. Open up the front door take one step inside and look
around and tell me if I'm wrong. I have been building stairs for quite
some time and I'm the one who has to make this stuff look great and I
know why.
Your stairway placement in your new home should always be centrally
located and near the front door for two reasons. Easy access and
elegance. The reason why your stairway is placed in a central location,
is to provide the upstairs users easy access to those parts of the home
that are used most often, like the front door, bathrooms or kitchen.
Now the elegant design part of the stairway construction is my favorite
part. Stair builders and stairway designers, have been making these
works of art for centuries. I myself have seen and built some of the
most elegant stairways in my area.
My passion for stairway construction could easily show up in this
article, but I wrote it to give home designers and new home builders and
idea about stairway placement and the importance of a nice elegant set
of stairs.
If you're planning on building a new home, the stairway can provide you
with a very appealing piece of furniture for your home. This is one
place where you might want to spend a little more money and reap the
rewards as you use it on a daily basis.
