THE CENTRE SPINE
A center spine staircase is a type of staircase design characterised by a central structural spine or core that supports the treads and risers. It is also commonly known as a central stringer staircase. The spine runs vertically through the middle of the staircase, acting as the main load-bearing element and providing stability to the entire structure.
The center spine staircase consists of a series of steps connected to the central spine, which is made of steel. The steps are made by cladding a steel tray in solid oak, or stone, depending on the desired aesthetic.
One notable feature of a center spine staircase is the open space surrounding the spine. This open design creates an airy and visually appealing look, allowing light to flow through the staircase and enhancing the overall sense of space in the surrounding area. The absence of a traditional wall or solid support on one side of the staircase gives it a modern and sleek appearance.
To ensure the safety of users, handrails are usually installed on one or both sides of the staircase. These handrails are made from glass which is attached to the ends of the treads or adjacent wall.
Center spine staircases are often chosen for their elegant and contemporary appearance. They are commonly found in residential homes, commercial buildings, and modern architectural designs. The design versatility of center spine staircases allows for customisation and integration into various interior styles, making them a popular choice for those seeking a visually striking and functional staircase solution.
