Staircases have always been the heart of a home but have been neglected by designers for decades, offering few options in homes other than ultra-modern mansions. Now, architects and designers have shifted some well-deserved attention to staircases and doing more than frame art, but getting creative with paint, shape, creative rails and various building products.
We are seeing glass pop up more and more, even in traditional homes, all in the stairwells of American houses. Some use is modern with walls of glass, others offer actual steps made from glass, while others use glass accents. Realtors should be aware of the trend to offer buyers ideas as they dream of remodeling and homeowners should consider simple glass installation over traditional wood railing for a pop!
