Tempe, Arizona
2018 National CotY Award Winner, Residential Interior Element $30,000 and Over
An unsafe and outdated interior staircase was updated into an elegant, inviting, and timeless path to the second story. A flared layout, with curved front stair treads are finished off with a mixture of stained and painted hardwoods for a classy look. New railings create a more open feel between the stairway and upstairs. The rebuilt staircase now has a consistent stair tread size, which provides safe use of the new handrails when going up or down the stairs. A previously unused niche under the stairs was transformed into a quaint storage and seating area as well.
