The existing staircase on the Sylvan street project cut off light to the downstairs living area and was in a sad state. A new solution was required to address several practical issues, as well as create a feature to the surrounding living spaces. A custom steel structure of SHS sections combined with welded plate provide the backbone to the stair. Timber treads will be fixed onto the plate which tie the walking surface to the surrounds by using the same timber as the flooring.
