The presence of a staircase in the interior of a two-story house improves the aesthetic quality and functionality of the space in which it is located. The building is not only an important structural element connecting the two floors, but also a decorative element of the interior. Modern indoor buildings are represented not only by traditional marching structures, but also, depending on the method of fixing the steps, can acquire a very different configuration.

In addition to the form and material of manufacture, its appearance is influenced by the decor, which can be used for a festive event or be an integral part of the staircase and the space around it.

The material of manufacture and location in space can be different, and is selected taking into account the area of \u200b\u200bthe room, the stylistic direction of the interior and operational features.

Based on configuration and space, the structure should be selected as follows:

1. In the corridor, the rational choice would be a U-shaped or L-shaped marching structure with a turntable or winder steps... Usually these are wooden structures, the design of which is combined with the color scheme of the room;

U-shaped

1. In a spacious hall, you can install a straight wide... For a classic interior, wooden structures can be used;

Spacious

1. When placing in the living room, it is recommended to give preference to structures located along one of the walls... In this case, the functional use of the under-flight space is possible, in which you can place household appliances, paintings and photos, or organize a recreation area, an office or an additional bed;

1. When located in the kitchen, it is desirable that its structure has transparent fences so that it seems lighter...

Design

Fencing

Depending on the location - in the kitchen, in the hallway, in the bedroom or in the living room, its design, material and decor should be in harmony with the design of the space and its colors.

Marching classic

For a classic Empire style interior, a straight structure made of dark wood is suitable. In the luxurious monumental Baroque style, a decorative one with a smooth turning angle, marble or stone steps, rounded railings and carved wrought-iron fences will harmoniously look.

In the modern interior of the "Loft" type, which is especially popular lately, an open staircase with one stringer will be appropriate. The railings can be made of steel, and the railing is made of tempered glass.

Modern

For a minimalist interior, you can use the fastening of steps on the bolts, which will create the illusion of weightlessness of the structure. To achieve a more effective perception, such a staircase may not have fences. Screw types look no less impressive in the interior, which can have both a classic look and an ultramodern one.

How to decorate a hallway space with a staircase

A spacious entrance hall or hall in a country house is the first room into which a person enters from the street. The first impression about the house is created precisely from the perception of this space, therefore, its design should be approached with all responsibility. The staircase in the hallway must also be framed and decorated with great care.

in a spacious hall of a country house

The entrance hall is a connecting link between the premises of the first floor, and the structure connects the premises vertically.

Therefore, when designing a hallway, consider the following:

1. The color scheme should be the same, or have harmoniously combined shades;

Despite the large construction area, the design looks easy and unobtrusive in the living room interior

1. The staircase is a logical continuation of the hallway. That is, in color and material, it should be combined with the material for decorating doorways, with framing mirrors, decorative frames for paintings and photos, with furniture material;

Harmonious design

1. It is important to observe not only the combination of design and furniture in the hallway in terms of style, but also their configuration. Spiral, spiral, with smooth curves, should be complemented by furniture of similar shapes. For example, a round pouf will complement the screw version, and a classic square or rectangular one will complement the traditional marching design;

The configuration follows the shape of a decorative vase

1. Hallway lighting or lighting should also match its style. In an interior with a modern design, LED step lighting and spotlights on the ceiling are suitable. In a spacious hall in the Baroque style, a multi-level chandelier will be appropriate on the ceiling.

Decorative lighting

The hall, in which the staircase is located, can be decorated with mirrors, tall houseplants, poufs, a table with a flower vase and furniture for storing clothes.

Mirror surfaces

In a corridor of a small area, the staircase must first of all be safe and functional.

Rational use

To prevent the space of the corridor with the stairs from looking dark and cramped, you can use the following design techniques:

1. A large mirror on the wall will visually expand the narrow space, and make it brighter;

1. Decorative niches with illumination can be arranged under the structure, which can also serve as a practical function. In a niche, you can install shelves for small things, mirrors, put decorative vases or figurines, place paintings or photographs;

1. The space can be made in the form of a roomy rack;

Spacious shelves

1. The staircase should be made of light-colored material and have adequate artificial lighting. The illumination of the steps is performed using LEDs or lamps mounted in the riser.

Free wall along the stairs - how to decorate?

Design option

In order to harmoniously decorate a free wall along the stairs, it is necessary to take into account the general color scheme of the hallway space, and the combination of decorative elements with it. You can highlight a free wall with a contrasting color or make it the backdrop for decorative elements.

Decorative panel on a free wall

You can use the following to decorate the wall:

1. A classic design option is color or black and white photographs or paintings posted on the wall. It is recommended to use not one large image, but several small or medium ones in the form of a collage. Frames can vary in shape and size, but they should have the same style, like the images in the photo;

1. Niches and shelves can be located on a free wall, if its width is sufficient. The location of the niches is recommended on the wall along the flight of stairs, and the shelves are in the corners of the turning platforms. Niches can be decorated with lighting, figurines, vases or flower pots, and decorative plates or baskets with climbing plants can be placed on the shelves;

1. Painting itself will make the structure a decorative element of the space. You can use contrasting colors in the design of the steps against the background of a plain wall, or play on its contrast with the material. White can be paired with bright accents or contrasting black;

Coloration

1. The wall can be decorated with various finishing materials - photo wallpaper, decorative plaster, interior paint, artificial stone;

Photo wallpaper on a free wall

Creative option for decorating the fence

Decorative lettering

When decorating, you can use various techniques, which will be described below. The main thing is not to deprive it of its main qualities - safety and functionality when decorating.

Choice of colors

Decoration with bright ornaments

The color palette should be chosen at the stage when the design of the steps is being developed. Traditionally, the choice is determined by the main construction material and the surrounding interior. However, non-standard solutions are possible, allowing you to get an unexpected effect when decorating a classic, unremarkable design.

Decorative appearance

You can use the most common technique - playing with contrast. Decorating is done using two opposite shades. This can be the use of light and dark tones belonging to the same color, or achromatic black and white.

Black and white design

Painting the riser white is a classic solution when it contrasts with a dark tread, on the surface of which dirt will not be so noticeable. The opposite performance will look more impressive. Another effective option is to use bright colors against a neutral background.

Unusual design

Contrast can be achieved by using different colors of the metal elements of the stairs and shades characteristic of different types of natural wood.

In a minimalist interior, colored contrasting details will be out of place. Maximum, you can recommend a combination of black and white - or monochrome execution of the stairs.

bright colours

Important! For safety reasons, the steps should not visually merge into one surface.

To create a positive mood, you can use the rainbow colors of the steps in the interior. The planes of the risers or the edges of the treads along the entire length of the march can be painted in the colors of the rainbow.

Staining steps

Use of decorative stickers

Funny decorative stickers

When decorating stairs, you can use stickers or patterns. Such decoration can be made in the form of ready-made vinyl stickers, self-adhesive films, wallpapers, paints and stencils. The work can be done by hand. See instructions below.

Free wall decoration

Self-adhesive decorative foil, glued to the surface of the riser, is the easiest way to change the appearance of an indoor staircase. This material is sold in the form of ready-made stickers or roll material.

To place the sticker, it is enough to remove the protective paper layer from the adhesive backing and attach the products to the selected surface. When using roll material, you will need to show creative thinking and imagination in order to cut out an image using a stencil.

You can cut a fragment to fit the riser and paste over it completely. It should be noted that the price for self-adhesive film is quite low.

Important! The surface on which the self-adhesive tape is to be glued must be clean and free from grease.

With the help of stickers, it is possible to decorate risers, treads and walls adjacent to the stairs.

Self-adhesive film use options

Wallpaper is an alternative to self-adhesive films. The risers can be pasted over with wallpaper that is used in the design of the walls of the hallway, or you can use others that are combined with them in pattern, style and material.

If the walls of the hallway are pasted over with non-woven or vinyl wallpaper, then paper wallpaper on the sub-steps will only spoil the overall picture.

An equally interesting solution would be to paint treads and risers with paint and stencils. The image should correspond to the style orientation of the interior. These can be classic ornaments, or provocative inscriptions in a modern design in the form of stamps or graffiti.

Stencils can be purchased ready-made, made to order, or by yourself using ordinary cardboard.

Additional decoration of steps

In addition to the traditional ways of decorating steps and staircase designs, there are extraordinary solutions. We are talking about additional decorative elements in the form of overhead rugs on the steps.

In addition to the decorative effect, this solution allows you to achieve a practical solution to some features during the operation of the stairs.

It is worth noting that such elements can be made in the form of individual overlays for each individual step or in the form of a track fixed throughout the entire flight.

Using such a decor allows you to achieve the following effect:

1. Thanks to the insulation of the staircase, it becomes comfortable to move along it without shoes;

1. During the operation of the ladder, silent movement along it is provided;

1. Achieved maximum comfort due to pleasant tactile sensations;

1. Provides a high decorative effect of the staircase and the creation of a cozy atmosphere of space;

1. The safety of the staircase is ensured due to the anti-slip properties of the material.

Such linings can be purchased ready-made or made with an old carpet or carpet trimmings available. When using a solid canvas, it is fixed with special holders. Depending on the color and material of the covering, you can create a luxurious, solemn or warm and cozy atmosphere.

A cheaper and more practical option is to use silicone or vinyl pads, which are attached with a sticky base. These overlays can be of different shapes and colors.

Handrail and baluster decoration

The enclosing structures of typical stairs are made in the form of simple balusters and handrails, but even the most laconic design can be transformed, thanks to some decorative techniques:

1. For decorating handrails, as well as for steps, illumination in the form of spotlights mounted on support posts or LED strip can be used;

1. A traditional attribute of the New Year and Christmas holidays, a garland, can also become a daily decoration of a staircase. This will create a permanent sense of celebration. You can use flower wreaths, ribbons, bells and decorative figures;

1. Another option is to paint the railings and balusters with paint. For wooden balusters, tinting and processing with varnish are recommended. Metal stairs can be painted in accordance with the color scheme of the interior;
2. A special decorative effect can be achieved when using tempered glass or forged fences in the wooden structure of the staircase. Tempered glass can be transparent, tinted or decorated with a pattern. Forged fragments can be painted;

1. You can decorate the railings with textiles. This requires the use of light floating materials that will give the fences an elegant look and solemnity. The fabric can be combined with a garland of flowers or bouquets of flowers. It is possible to use colored ribbons;

1. Decorative paper products contribute to creating a bright and effective way to decorate stairs. These can be garlands, spinners, flags or chains;

1. Decorating the stairs with fresh flowers can be done by installing baskets with lush flower arrangements on the steps, or by placing graceful twigs "woven" into the fence. You can enhance the effect by using an LED strip in a flower garland. Such decoration will be appropriate for outdoor stairs;
