Floating staircases: the ultimate modern statement

A floating staircase is the most popular option in our modern collection. The steps appear to float away from the wall—with no visible support structure—creating a dramatic, airy effect. Technically challenging, aesthetically undeniable.

We design floating staircases made of solid wood, with or without a handrail, and tailor the support structure entirely to the structural requirements of your home. Every project begins with an on-site measurement.

Open treads give a staircase a modern, airy look and allow light to filter down into the space below. Closed treads—even in a modern design—create a more substantial, calmer appearance. We’ll help you make that choice based on your space, your lifestyle, and your preferences.

FAQ — Modern Stairs

Absolutely. Floating staircases are engineered to meet all safety standards. The steps are anchored to the load-bearing wall or to a central beam. We always provide a technical report for every project.

Yes. Many of our modern staircases combine wooden steps with a steel frame or glass balustrade. We work with specialized partners for the metal components and coordinate the entire process.

We always prioritize safety. For families with small children, we adjust the spacing between the balusters or opt for a solid balustrade. A safe staircase and an attractive one are not mutually exclusive.

Please allow 6 to 12 weeks, depending on the complexity and materials. A floating staircase with a steel core takes longer to build than a straight open staircase. We’ll plan everything in consultation with you.
