Project #105 | U-Shaped Staircase with Thick Square Newels

Framed by abundant natural light, this U-shaped staircase connects the levels of a contemporary home. The design creates visual cohesion throughout, with all materials carefully selected to complement the home's architectural finishes. Nutty brown stained oak appears in the thick square newels, matching handrail, and treads, providing warmth and presence. Vertical black round metal balusters maintain sightlines to surrounding spaces, while crisp white risers add brightness and contrast. The result is a staircase that feels both cohesive and bold, proving that strong material choices can define a home's character.
