Jeanne Liem Architecture + DesignStairs toward the roof deck is equipped with a large automatic roof hatch.
LLI DesignThe existing staircase that led from the lower ground to the upper ground floor, was removed and replaced with a new, feature open tread glass and steel staircase towards the back of the house, thereby maximising the lower ground floor space. All of the internal walls on this floor were removed and in doing so created an expansive and welcoming space.
Due to its’ lack of natural daylight this floor worked extremely well as a Living / TV room. The new open timber tread, steel stringer with glass balustrade staircase was designed to sit easily within the existing building and to complement the original 1970’s spiral staircase.
Because this space was going to be a hard working area, it was designed with a rugged semi industrial feel. Underfloor heating was installed and the floor was tiled with a large format Mutina tile in dark khaki with an embossed design. This was complemented by a distressed painted brick effect wallpaper on the back wall which received no direct light and thus the wallpaper worked extremely well, really giving the impression of a painted brick wall.
The furniture specified was bright and colourful, as a counterpoint to the walls and floor. The palette was burnt orange, yellow and dark woods with industrial metals. Furniture pieces included a metallic, distressed sideboard and desk, a burnt orange sofa, yellow Hans J Wegner Papa Bear armchair, and a large black and white zig zag patterned rug.

Century Stair CompanyWe had the wonderful opportunity to build this sophisticated staircase in one of the state-of-the-art Fitness Center
offered by a very discerning golf community in Loudoun County; we demonstrate with this recent sample our superior
craftsmanship and expertise in designing and building this fine custom-crafted stairway. Our design/manufacturing

FORMA DesignThe dramatic open tread stair runs throughout the 4-story house and is embedded in each of the two side walls, allowing for the abundant daylight to filter through the house. The glass railing provides security yet allows the light to travel without any impediment.
