What type of staircase are you ?
It’s often overlooked but a staircase can be central to a buildings design and function. It is after all how we move from one floor to another. As Perth builders increasingly look to townhouses and two story construction projects, choosing the right staircase and timber flooring is becoming an integral part of most construction projects.
It goes without saying that staircases come in many shapes and sizes. From open, floating timber steps through to ornate, sweeping masterpieces, a staircase can be eye catching and make a real statement. When stairs are paired with the right type of timber flooring they can blend seamlessly with a buildings design and become a beautiful feature.
So, what type of staircase are you ?
Floating / Open Stairs
An open plan floating staircase can be visually stunning and can let light flood through into rooms and hallways. Floating staircases can be used for commercial or residential projects. More often than not stairs with floating treads have hidden structures that help give the impression that the treads are floating.
Combining floating, open staircases with glass help provide additional support and safety. They might not be appropriate for every house or building but when used in conjunction with modern interior design, open staircases look incredible.
Traditional Stairs
Modern staircase designs that include glass and steel may not be the best solution for more established properties. At Floors of Distinction we’ve modified and refurbished many existing staircases in Perth. This has helped our clients bring new life to their house.
Traditional staircases don’t have to be ‘traditional’ in the boring sense. Adding hand crafted timber treads and unique balustrading can make a very real feature out of the most functional of stairs.
Modern Staircases
A modern staircase could be classed as one that includes materials and designs that don’t fall within the traditional mold. Modern stairs are uniquely designed and built to suit a very specific look and feel. At Floors of Distinction we love a challenge and will help any of our Perth clients achieve their dream. Whether it’s timber flooring or funky staircases, we offer complete flooring solutions.
Timber Stairs
A timber staircase adds warmth and style to any space. It makes a house look classic and spacious, and acts as the functional centrepiece of your home. Timber stairs can be fitted over the top of existing concrete stairs or made to suit.
At Floors of Distinction our master craftsman has over 30 years experience in creating and fitting beautiful timber staircases and steps. These stair designs will then complement your timber flooring and add a stunning feature to your house.
It’s worth noting that timber stairs don’t have to be paired with timber flooring. As Perths leader in timber flooring supplies and installation, we’ve paired timber with carpet, concrete and any other type of flooring you can think of. One of the main attributes of timber flooring is that it looks beautiful in every setting and is perfectly suited to the Perth environment.
In summary there are many options and you’re only limited by your imagination. The team at Floors of Distinction are here to assist all of our clients and, alongside our premium timber flooring Perth solution, we provide a full timber staircase supply and installation service.

I don’t know what kind of staircase to get. I think traditional might be best for me. I’ve always been more into classic styles.
