20+ Beautiful Modern Staircases in interior design architecture  Category

 

Let’s start out with a staircase we’ve talked about before: Ribbon Stairs. Designed by HŠH Architects to mimic a delicate rippling ribbon, these stairs are beautiful but maybe a little scary to run up and down when you’re in a hurry. (리본 모양을 본뜬 계단이라고 하는데 이런 계단을 오르내릴 때는 떨어지지 않도록 항상 걸음걸이를 조신하게 해야 할 것 같네요. 아래에 floating stairs가 몇 개 나오는데 이런 것들은 전부 떨어질까봐 무섭더라구요.)

Italian company 14 Ora Italiana has a collection of wood grain porcelain tiles that were inspired by the works of Andy Warhol. The Uonuon line comes in fourteen colors that are featured on this colorful and fun staircase. (이탈리아 디자인 회사에 설치된 계단으로 앤디 워홀의 작품에서 영향을 받았다는 Uonuon의 도자기 타일을 이용한 계단입니다.)

These stairs belong in House G by Maxwan Architects + Urbanists, in which a barn received a complete makeover. The planes of the stairs become a part of the wall shelves in a unique setup for book storage as well as kitchen storage. (서가나 부엌용 식자재 저장 공간으로 쓸 수 있다네요.)

From Rowin Petersma, this divided staircase is made of expanded steel that lets the maximum amount of light shine through from the top floor of the apartment. (아파트에 설치된 계단인 모양인데 발판 부분이 잘 안 나와서 사람이 꼭 공중에 떠 있는 것 같습니다.)

Yet another amazing staircase/bookshelf combo. This one is from Kathryn Tyler of Linea Studio’s own Scandinavian-inspired home. The Corkellis House does away with upper level kitchen cabinets and instead uses open shelving, as well as the staircase shelves, to house all of the kitchen-related items. (서가 대신 kitchen cabinets으로 활용하고 있네요.)

The eco-friendly Blue House, designed by architect Pieter Weijnen of Faro Architecten, features modern nautical touches throughout. The architect built the house for his family on Steigereiland, one of Amsterdam’s artificial islands, and the stairs appear to float in the air without support. Steel cables are placed on the sides for safety.

These steel floating stairs in Flat #1 by Ecole are simply amazing and a true statement of minimalism. (미니멀리즘을 나타내는 계단이라고 하는데 난간도 전혀 없는 플로팅 계단으로 아름다운 건 둘째치고 떨어질까봐 좀 무섭더라구요. 한발 한발 디딜 때마다 전율이 느껴질 듯...)

Located in what is known as the Godzilla House by Chae-Pereira Architects in Seoul, Korea, these suspended stairs float along a curved wall and are lit by the hidden windows above. (요 계단이 이태원에 위치한 개인 주택인 고질라 하우스에 설치된 계단입니다. 서울시 건축상을 수상한 30대 부부와 두 아이를 위한 집이라네요.

These unusually deep stairs, and the 4-stories of house surrounding them, come with the rather large price tag of $38 million. The iconic NYC property, designed by Paul Rudolph, has seen many a famous person inside including Halston and Gunter Sachs, who were both previous owners.

You can’t write a post about stairs and not include the Trippy Stairs that we featured last year. They are certainly some of the most unique stairs we’ve ever seen and most definitely, well, trippy.

And last, but certainly not least, are these spiral wood stairs that are just as sculptural as they are functional. Definitely one of our favorites.
