The only thing I would say about this particular image is that this staircase is cantilevered, which for your project would be an expensive option. However, there are certainly design elements we could take from this in terms of the simplicity of the materials used, the use of glass to increase light levels, etc.

I agree it's the simplicity and feeling of space it gives I think more than the way it is constructed

Thanks for all your ideas, i have been thinking for a long time about what I am missing in this house. Finally I got the great idea to turn this space into a 'dog massage parlour' with a big long bench along the wall and two kennels underneath. We have 16 sleddogs and I often give the dogs massages on the floor in the living room. Crouching down is not the best way for doing this, so a massage bench will be handy and the dogs will probably get more massages if I have the right work space.

We are hoping to have dual aspect from front to back with lounge, dining and kitchen open plan, then at least 2 bedrooms to the right, We downsized from a 5 bed house, have 4 kids( none at home) 7 grandkids and primarily family time is our main enjoyment, with 3 of our kids living local, but 1 son and his family ( 4 kids) living in yorkshire so need space for them to sleep and also just to add to things my mum may need to come live with us. So, need to maximize space! Is it a big ask?!

We are in currently in Spain and took a photo of an outside staircase that had the same structure - a steel support under the steps. Thank you for your reply and this is something of interest to us. We would need a straight flight. We can send you a drawing on our return from holiday. kind regards Richard & Dragana

How do I reconfigure the layout/change stairs to maximise space?

Hi Stuart. Interesting dilemma. My first thought is. Could you extend downstairs and reconfigure the kitchen so you have a shower room downstairs. I think it couldn’t directly connect with the kitchen, you’d have to make the area bigger and have a small corridor/ storage area. The outside WC is quirky but unusable in reality. ( I’m not a designer!!)

Excellent. Well, I'll definitely keep this in mind when I start looking at sourcing staircase elements. By the way, as we start getting individual photos that stand out as the way you want to develop each space, I'll create a separate Ideasbook that Dan can then have access to if he sets himself up on Houzz. That way it will be easier to discuss the final specifications with him.

Great thank you

Just love the wood and glass

Think to be honest clean temporary with splash of colour or wacky something etc is going to be theme throughout house

Not frightened of colour or anything really but want to give total feeling of light space and every part gap a purpose etc
