A striking entryway featuring a floating oak staircase paired with bold black skirting detailing, setting a contemporary yet timeless tone. Beneath the stairs, the space is styled with black storm lanterns that nod to the contrasting skirting, alongside an oversized pot with an elegant olive tree to bring greenery and movement, softening the architectural edges. A sleek bench with a large mirror enhances functionality while adding depth and reflection, creating a balanced blend of style, comfort and sophistication.

The main staircase was repositioned and redesigned to improve flow and to sit more comfortable with the building’s muted classical aesthetic. Similarly, new panelled and arched door and window linings were designed to accord with the original arched openings of the coach house.

One of our clients' main requirements was to improve the circulation between the kitchen/dining area and the living room, half a level above, whilst retaining some separation. This has been achieved by installing a set of angled steps to the side of the semicircular veneered larder, which lead to glazed double doors opening-into the living room. Photography: Bruce Hemming

++++ english version below ++++ texte français ci-après ++++ Für die Treppenstufen und Wangen verwendeten wir HPL (High Pressure Laminate) aus Frischfaserpapier und Phenolharz – ein Gemisch, das der Treppe eine seidenmatt-weiße Oberfläche verleiht. HPL besitzt eine besonders schlag- und kratzfeste Oberfläche, die insbesondere für stark beanspruchte Einbauten die ideale Wahl ist. Der Treppenstufenkern aus Holzwerkstoff ist mit HPL ummantelt; die 13 Millimeter dünne Treppenwange besteht komplett aus dem äußerst praktischen Material. Hokon / Masukowitz ++++ We used HPL (High Pressure Laminate) for the steps and wall strings. This material provides an extremly impact- and scratch-resistant surface with silk-mat finish and is the best choice for heavily used installations. The steps from derived timber products are coated by HPL, the wall string consists completely of this useful material and are - with just 13mm - very light. ++++ Le matériel utilisé pour l‘escalier et les limons HPL (stratifié haute pression) sont en papier de fibres vierges et de résine phénolique - un mélange qui donne à l’escalier une surface de satin blanc. HPL a une surface particulièrement résistante à l‘impact et aux rayures, le choix idéal pour des constructions très sollicitées. Le matériau des marches est en bois recouvert de HPL; le limon de 13 millimètres d’épaisseur est constitué entièrement de cette matière très pratique.
