Warehouse renovation from the ground up with reclaimed materials from exposed beams or old flooring can be done on budget and timeilne with a shop as capable as Gepetto. Builders of exquisite wood architectural elements like spiral staircases and curved railings like pictured here in this slideshow take great care with the materials to bend and twist with the wood grain. Along with the complex measurements that are required to accurately build in the three dimensional turns of a spiral, we take great care to meet the structural strength and weight bearing needs of the staircases we build.
We have used solid wood joinery with the center column in several projects, but here we blended the the flexibility and strength of steel to meet the architectural needs of this project. The three levels of the Ladybird Hat Factory renovation were connected with this spiral staircase built around the elevator shaft. The new addition of an elevator to this late 19th century building left us plenty of structural integrity from which to hang the floating staircase. The extra large internal diameter allowed us to use a lower angle between steps as we completed the arc between levels. Walk in sometime to experience how the arc of the staircase moves through the space. Complete the turn on solid wood planks as you rise from level to level and feel the craftsmanship that we intended.
