Maximize the impact of your staircase by introducing stylish paneling. Choose from a variety of materials such as wood, or even decorative wall panels to add texture and interest. Paneling can enhance the overall design while providing a sophisticated backdrop.

“Timeless Design is thrilled to have one of the best fine carpenters in the area on our team.” says project manager Joshua Towber, “So we love adding paneling, or wainscoting in our client’s homes to create dynamic spaces. It never disappoints!”

Upgrade your staircase by paying attention to the balusters and railings. Swap out traditional designs for sleek, modern alternatives or choose ornate balusters for a touch of classic elegance. A fresh coat of paint black or white being our preference can further enhance their visual appeal.

Enhance your staircase with a statement runner. Opt for bold patterns or luxurious textures to make a lasting impression. Consider a monochromatic palette for a timeless look or experiment with vibrant hues for a modern twist. Our designer, Kate FitzGerald-Wilks personally loves using jute!

“It is important to remember that not all carpeting can be used on stairs.” says principal designer Kate FitzGerald-Wilks, “So a critical step of our design work is finding something that blends the style and functionality that we are going for in the client’s home.”

Make the journey up the stairs visually stimulating by creating a gallery wall. Showcase family photos, artwork, or a collection of frames that complement your overall home decor. This adds a personal touch and transforms the staircase into a gallery-worthy space.

Illuminate your staircase with carefully selected lighting fixtures. Pendant lights, chandeliers, or wall sconces can create a dramatic effect. Consider the interplay of light and shadows to add depth and interest to your stairwell.

Bring the outdoors in by incorporating natural elements into your stair styling. Try out a botanical theme by adding a potted palm to the landing, or introduce a touch of rustic charm with wooden accents. Natural materials can add warmth and texture to the space.
