Bates Modern Manor - Mediterranean Curving Staircase
Guests sweep into the home through a set of red double doors. An elliptical Mediterranean staircase awes visitors as their eyes leave the waxed-steel spindles and beech railing to soak up the clean, white walls and dark black walnut floors." The high ceilings of the main-level rooms are intricate part of the home's one and a half story design. To create an ideal sense of scale, the roof was carefully crafted to facilitate the dormers and height of the upper-level rooms.
Providing a view from the front door into the cozy den was just one way Kevin created intimacy while maximizing space and light.
Are these pickets the same as the photo with the cross? I like the rod pickets with a wood banister. Thoughts?
