Customer Comment:
“I was extremely impressed with the workmanship. The fitters are very nice guys, extremely friendly and it was an absolute pleasure to have them over doing the work.”
Overview:
A stylish staircase transformation using Anthracite stained oak, brushed steel elements, and embedded grey glass panels to create a sleek, contemporary centrepiece.
Category:
This expertly executed staircase renovation by Abbott-Wade was achieved by cladding over the existing structure and upgrading key elements such as newel posts, balustrades, and handrails. The result is a striking staircase that appears completely new.
Style:
Designed for a modern home, this staircase renovation introduces a refined palette of grey tones and stainless steel. The use of light-enhancing materials creates a sense of brightness and space while maintaining a sophisticated, contemporary aesthetic.
Timber Selection:
Finished in our signature Anthracite stain, the engineered oak used throughout offers rich depth and elegant contrast. All components are hand-finished in-house to achieve a durable, furniture-grade finish.
Newel Posts & Caps:
Crisp, square newel posts crafted from engineered oak are topped with understated flat caps, ensuring clean, seamless lines.
Handrail Style:
A brushed stainless steel handrail delivers a sleek, industrial-modern touch while providing a comfortable and secure grip.
Balustrade:
10mm toughened grey glass panels are embedded directly into the rails, creating clean, minimalist lines. The combination of timber, glass, and stainless steel enhances light flow and visual appeal.
Treads:
The original treads and risers have been finished with soft carpeting, delivering warmth and comfort underfoot. Integrated lighting, coordinated with the client’s electrician, adds subtle illumination via the stringers.
In Summary:
A high-impact, contemporary staircase in Spalding that merges deep-toned oak, modern grey glass, and stainless steel for a design that’s as functional as it is beautiful.

This stunning modern home in Middle Park demanded the best of the design team and the builder. The home is sleek, modern and filled with unique lighting that provides function without spoiling the lines of the home. Generous spaces and minimalist design called for architectural lighting techniques that hide light away into the features of each room, revealing light only when in operation. Mike Lees (Builder) provided these photo's.

Inside, a beautiful wrought-iron Victorian staircase connects each floor. The stairwell that sits central to the home reminds us that the property is far from ordinary; painted every colour imaginable with vibrant artworks and a Central line tube map print acknowledging its location.

Stairwell Interior Design Project in Richmond, West London
We were approached by a couple who had seen our work and were keen for us to mastermind their project for them. They had lived in this house in Richmond, West London for a number of years so when the time came to embark upon an interior design project, they wanted to get all their ducks in a row first. We spent many hours together, brainstorming ideas and formulating a tight interior design brief prior to hitting the drawing board.
Reimagining the interior of an old building comes pretty easily when you’re working with a gorgeous property like this. The proportions of the windows and doors were deserving of emphasis. The layouts lent themselves so well to virtually any style of interior design. For this reason we love working on period houses.
It was quickly decided that we would extend the house at the rear to accommodate the new kitchen-diner. The Shaker-style kitchen was made bespoke by a specialist joiner, and hand painted in Farrow & Ball eggshell. We had three brightly coloured glass pendants made bespoke by Curiousa & Curiousa, which provide an elegant wash of light over the island.
The initial brief for this project came through very clearly in our brainstorming sessions. As we expected, we were all very much in harmony when it came to the design style and general aesthetic of the interiors.
In the entrance hall, staircases and landings for example, we wanted to create an immediate ‘wow factor’. To get this effect, we specified our signature ‘in-your-face’ Roger Oates stair runners! A quirky wallpaper by Cole & Son and some statement plants pull together the scheme nicely.
