Had some lovely help before but now trying to get some ideas for decorating the stairs and maybe put down a carpet on the stairs. I hate the pink/coral marble and want to try and modernise it, thinking greys... plus modern art. Really don't want to paint the banisters- too many!!!

    Agreed a stair runner would work well if you aren't happy with the marble

    You have grey on the floor below so why not get a grey runner with a black border that will also tie into the wrought iron? I wouldn't paint the banisters unless you are doing the doors (I wouldn't paint them anyway as I hate heights!)

    What a beautiful staircase! It is stunning!

    Project Home UK suggested a stair runner going down the middle of the steps would perhaps be more effective than a fully fitted carpet.

    We supply carpets and floorcoverings throughout the UK and Ireland and can also offer a bespoke stair runner service where you choose any one of our floorings or carpets (as long as suitable for stairs of course) and pick a border to go around the edge.

    We have some beautiful examples of customers 'in-situ' runners in our 'in-situ' ideabook which may give you some inspiration?

    We recently did a photoshoot in a location with a similar staircase to yours, photo below, where we used a bold striped runner in 100% wool, with a simple whipped edge. The second photo is of a grand central staircases in one of our retailer showrooms which has the new Quirky B Fair Isle Reiko by Margo Selby running down the centre - beautiful!

    Take a look at our website, www.alternativeflooring.com, to see our full collection of floorcoverings and have a play with flooring and border combinations using our 'Make me a rug' designer. Have fun!

    It is a major project due to the size of this superb art nouveau staircase. However you can change the impression of it by painting the metal banisters in light grey or beige. Those colours will correspond better with the wall and the handrail. Also you can clean and polish the marble or even sand it. As a result you might end up with a completely different texture and therefore a new look.
