Building an indoor staircase

[RenoverarenMattias]

Hi!

Does anyone have a good suggestion on how I should build my small new staircase that goes between two floor levels? It will have two steps, three if you count the step up onto the upper floor. Should I build my own stringers or just use joists under each step? The new staircase should run wall to wall, starting where the lower floor ends. The upper floor will be extended a bit to meet the new staircase.

I hope I've explained it well, but the picture might help.

Grateful for any suggestions.

Regards, Mattias

Hello!

Does anyone have a good suggestion on how to build my small new staircase that goes between two floor levels.

Should one build own vang underneath or just joists under each step.

Yes, you've answered your own question
Either you use bought or homemade stringers.
Or you build with joists. What type of cladding will you have on the steps?

Well, you seem to have answered the question yourself
Either you use purchased stringers or make your own.
Or you build with studs. What kind of cladding are you planning for the steps?

Well, in a way I did, but I was hoping someone could provide a smooth description/drawing if they've done something similar before and what dimensions they used. For example, if they used studs as steps or planed planks.

Are you going to lay the same floor in the stairs or do you have another idea?

I thought about that at first, but I've been considering painting the steps instead.

I thought of that at first but have probably considered painting the steps instead.

Some build the treads from a countertop of some kind.
The most important thing is that you have dry wood of high quality. Then you have to decide if you think it's nice with visible stringers or hidden ones.

I have a couple of 18 mm shelves in beech, maybe that would work if properly reinforced. I'll probably go with hidden stringers, I think it looks clean and nice.

It should probably work. And I agree that it looks best with hidden
