Awesome! Now I just need a home with stairs.
Too bad most of your stairs pictures are not up to code as far as having no hand railing at all. The one that does, but just has a single rail with the entire area below the rail that is open isn’t code either. There needs to be balists ( vertical ) rail no farther than every 3″ to keep kids from falling off the stairs. All your other ideas are great, just a safety & code violation I wanted to point out. It probably varies state to state but regardless of that its still a safety issue to have an open exposed staircase.
Beautiful photos and great ideas!
