House in Kennington

Modern plywood stair in a double height space creates a link between the traditional floors and the new contemporary loft extension. The plywood winders are solid, as if "carved" from the single mass of plywood. And the single treads are open, creating the sense of lightness. The space is flooded with light from a skylight which the stair winds around. Steel cables create a full height fall protection which looks light, but feels safer than a usual balustrade. The triple height circulation space looks "cathedral-like", according to the client. Photo credits: CorePro Ltd
