Top Tread Stairways
Space-saving staircase terminology
I normally call these Alternating-tread stairs, but there are other common terms:
• Space-saving Stair
• Alternating stair
• Thomas Jefferson Stair
• Jeffersonian staircase
• Ergonomic stair with staggered treads
• Zig-zag-style
• Boat Paddle-shaped treads
• Ship’s Ladder
• Alternating-tread devises
• Tiny-house stairs
• Crows foot stairs
Space-saving Stairs have been used widely in Europe for many years and now have become quite popular in the US with the rise of the Tiny House movement. A further boost has been given to the Space-saving staircase with several of the major building codes in the US allowing them.

Kaplan Thompson Architects
We created an almost crystalline form that reflected the push and pull of the most important factors on the site: views directly to the NNW, an approach from the ESE, and of course, sun from direct south. To keep the size modest, we peeled away the excess spaces and scaled down any rooms that desired intimacy (the bedrooms) or did not require height (the pool room).

Haycon Inc.
This condominium in Boston’s famous Fenway neighborhood required a full renovation of the kitchen and bathroom. Working with the designer to maximize space was focus of this project. Exchanging the spiral staircase for a custom ladder to the roof was just one of the space saving features in this design. Custom millwork and high end finishes help make this modest space seem spacious and airy.
