Elaborating Under the Staircase into a Useful and Beautiful Space
What do you do with that bit of empty space under the stairs? It’s been a question that has been long asked. Sometimes taken for granted, it is one of the most important elements of any building. Staircases link two or more floors and can be built and finished of different kinds of materials. From modern and simple to grand and elaborate, architects and designers are drawing up unique ways to bridge vertical distances. There have been many ingenious answers. Than what about the walk in closet you’ve always wanted, filled with a fashionable new wardrobe purchased at wholesale clothing prices. Or perhaps a playroom for your child, or the room you’ve always threatened to allot your household pet? With a little planning and an open mind, you’ll have the space you never even knew you wanted. We take a look at some of them here.
