My God, it’s full of stairs!

OK, Bonus points for catching the movie reference, but I wanted to tell you that the stairs have been installed! And we all thought they look great! The pictures are taken through the windows, because no one was there to let us in, but still, we could not resist showing them to you.

On a side note, the wood burning stove has been installed as well as you can see on the far wall. More pictures of that later, I suppose.

This, admittedly horrible, photomontage is trying to piece together two not too great pictures showing both the railings on the upper floor, and most of the stairs, seen from the window above the landing.

The stairs was one part of the house where we knew very little what the end result would look like. Basically we knew the layout with two flights of stairs with a landing in the middle, and had seen pictures of the railing, but no more.

Given our previous experiences we would not have been very surprised if the landing was not at all nicely aligned with middle of the two windows, above and below the landing.

But now that we’ve finally seen how everything about the stairs turned out, we are quite satisfied! Of course, we still haven't had a chance to actually try it out yet, perhaps it’ll feel awkward, too narrow or too steep?

Nah, it’ll be great, except perhaps when trying to get the furniture upstairs through the 180 degree turn :-)

  1. Vilken rymd! Möblera inte för mycket! Då slipper ni kånka i trapporna. För övrigt är trappor snyggt, tycker jag, men kanske ingenting för busiga katter.
