Double-Height Living Room with Floating Stairs
About Living Room Interiors
Common questions from homeowners.
It's the floating staircase, with dark steel treads that seem to cantilever off the wall and a clear glass railing. Set against the tall fluted wood wall, it becomes a piece of sculpture in the room.
This is a double-height living room, open to the floor above. The extra height is what lets the long beaded chandelier cascade down and gives the whole space a grand, airy feel.
The TV sits on a marble feature wall with soft veining, over a low media console. The stone backdrop makes the TV zone feel intentional rather than just a screen on a plain wall.
There's a channel-tufted sofa plus a few loose accent chairs arranged around an organic marble coffee table, so there's plenty of comfortable seating for guests.
In most homes, yes, with the right structural support. Share your floor plan and ceiling height and the designer can advise whether this cantilevered look will work for you.
