cool --but you can see the entire floor has been raised--do you have the ceiling height? a closet 'step up' would be less of a structural commitment, OR a buildup under builtin furniture--like bookcases flanking a fireplace, also some great ideas on HOUZZ i'd never have thought of. sorry i'm not tech-ie enough to paste the site:) of course if you go 'structural' --all walls and ceilings are fair game as well. remember that ease of access [or lack thereof] can affect stealth mode greatly--as in your pic: every time you step onto the 'box' in your pic you would hear a 'different' sound.

I think it looks good on the paper but to make a code compliant staircase you will have to call a stair company have them do the layout and they will tell you if you have room or not and give you what options you have. In here you wasting your time. With that said, they can probably fit 3' landing with 2 stairs going down and doing 90 degree turn with 10 stairs, that will set you at around 8"+ riser height, here in NJ you can have a riser height 8 1/4" and min thread depth 9" so it might just work. You have to check your local code and see what the stair requirement is for your area and work from there. Good luck

As per vastu the kitchen should be in SOUTH EAST direction with the BURNER on the SE corner and the cook should face EAST while cooking. Master bedroom or the bedroom of the earning member should be in the SOUTH WEST direction. Positions of W.C. also matters . It should be facing NORTH. Beds positions of all the rooms should not be on the NORTH wall. These are the some points of vastu. If you want it in detail, you can ask me.

Hi, Do you want to demolish the old house completely? You haven't shown the staircase in your new plan. The kitchen size mentioned by you is too big. I think 10x15 means kitchen and dining space both. For any help you can contact me on 7838154046 or write to me on pkassociates8@gmail.com.
