Sharing with you some beautiful architectural staircases

I often share staircases and entrances that I love over on my Instagram Profile, which always gets plenty of attention. So, for this week’s round of Friday Favourites, I have decided to gather a collection for you to view all in one place.

I absolutely LOVE a staircase that takes centre stage and demands attention. One that begs the eye and mind to come in for a closer look, following it’s path to wherever it may lead me… Whether it be classical and full of character and detailing, or more contemporary with clean lines, a staircase is an opportunity to design and create something truly beautiful and long-lasting.

I hope you enjoy this week’s edition of Friday Favourites!

Although this circular staircase features clean, simple lines, the finish choices provide plenty of character and warmth. Even though concrete is used, the timber steps really soften the look.

I have always loved and admired the engineering behind a cantilevered staircase. It also creates a beautiful, open feel to the home, allowing plenty of natural light to spill through.
