Make your Stairs a Lasting First Impression

May 8, 2019 By Heather Fritz

What kind of lasting impression does your front entry leave?

It’s time to give stairs more attention. Stairs are often the feature of an entrance; the first place of welcome and greeting in a home. The entryway has the opportunity to set the feeling and tone for the rest of the home.

There are so many spaces in a home that require our attention – kitchen, bathroom, living room, etc. And while they are all important, we believe the rewards are great for time invested in designing stairs and railing, with style. A staircase can tie together all aspects of your home. Not only are stairs and railing the primary focus of an entry, but they are generally visible from many areas of the home, giving them huge stylistic reach and influence. Stairs set the tone and style from the beginning, letting everything else flow from that place of inspiration.

Here are our top 5 favorite entryways:

We may be a little biased, but here is our collection of favorite staircases that were beautifully handcrafted and designed by our team at Specialized Stair and Rail (owners of Custom Newel Posts). As you’ll discover, each staircase sets the style for the home.

By taking a peek in the front door of these homes, you can get a real sense of what is to come in the spaces beyond the front entry.

This white oak, mono stringer demands your attention upon arrival! The combination of warm wood tones, glass, and stainless steel handrails creates a stunningly modern and open feel.
