Case Studies
Statement Steel and Oak Staircase
Client Mr & Mrs Hatton
Sector Residential
Location Herefordshire
Mr and Mrs Hatton had an idea for an airy yet statement staircase for their home in rural Herefordshire. As well as improving movement up and down the stairs, they wanted to create flow and a feeling of space in the entrance hallway. The couple worked with bespoke metalworkers, Winthill Engineering to craft a custom staircase.
“The team worked patiently and tirelessly with us through the design process,” comments, Mrs Hatton.
Winthill Engineering designed a sophisticated staircase with a hidden structural support which enhances the triangular space beneath the stairs – the spandrel – and increases circulation space.
Sleek and Sinuous Steel
The staircase is built from mild steel powder coated in a metallic finish chosen to complement the property’s exposed timbers. This is offset by solid oak treads in a natural finish.
A hand-forged handrail sits atop sleek round spindles and curves sinuously down, ending in a volute supported by a curtail block. This design adds elegance and creates a feature of the open staircase while easing movement up and down the stairs.
