Types of staircases you need to know

 It’s one of the most basic staircase variants and it can be utilized in all sizes and situations. A straight staircase for your living room, though simple and seemingly boring can be given a minimalistic and elegant look. Modern materials like glass and metal railings can make your staircase look like it’s straight outta a movie scene. There are no obvious drawbacks to the straight design except the fact that it may have limited room for stylizing and creativity.

2. L-shaped Staircase

As the name suggests, an L-shaped staircase is a straight staircase with a ben (or a turn, as it is called). This bend can be added at any point of the staircase, either closer to one of the ends or in the middle. It is usually preferred that the bend is in the middle of the staircase. The bend is usually supposed to be a 90 degrees turn and is not supposed to be steep. An L-shaped staircase offers more privacy when it comes to consideration. In case you have a toddler or a senior citizen at home, do opt for railings. An L-shaped staircase is also comparatively safer as the central landing (or turn-space) makes it so that it has fewer treads that one can fall.

The flat landing provides a resting point when ascending and descending. An L-shaped staircase may be located at the corner of a room, or in restricted spaces. There are no structural drawbacks to an L-shaped staircase design, but utilizing and getting one installed depends on the use case you are going for.  Getting an L-shaped staircase is relatively costly as it requires a greater skill level to construct and it is installed in segments.

4. Spiral Staircase

This type of staircase is possibly one of the most well-known staircase designs in the world. The spiral staircase design is centered around a pole as the axis around which the staircase ‘spirals’. Spiral staircases are the epitome of minimal and space-saving design. They can fit in any space, and hence are perfect for any kind of housing - from a beach house to an apartment in the city. A spiral staircase can also fit in with any kind of architectural style - rustic, modern, minimalist, boho, industrial - you name it. As you can guess, the spiral staircase draws structural support from the central axis pole and the landings. It has its own drawbacks, however. The use of a spiral staircase requires that you exercise caution while navigating it as the inner portion of each step would require form footing due to its steep nature. It is also not the best staircase if you are going to use the stairs to move things around. When looked at from an aerial view, a perfectly built spiral staircase would form a circle and feel like looking into a tunnel (or a cylinder).
