Interior designer Huong Vu offers a fresh perspective on the modern staircase design, emphasizing the importance of cohesive detailing. “The wood trim detail in this modern staircase is carried through to the window sill,” she says. This intentional design choice crafts a unified aesthetic that seamlessly integrates with the expansive window, bathing the space in natural light.
The organic feel of the wood is further accentuated by the stark contrast of the monochromatic elements, which Vu suggests, “enhances the staircase’s clean lines.” This idea is beautifully brought to life through the example of a staircase adorned with a brown and white geometric runner over light hardwood treads.
