Straight Stairs
A straight staircase connects floors with a single flight of stairs, requiring ample space for a seamless connection.
You can use modern materials and metallic railings to add interest in a plain straight staircase.
Spiral Stairs
Spiral stairs have an elegant and beautiful design. They are usually constructed around a single pole. Their compact design is perfect for smaller spaces.
