Hello
As I am totally obsessed (Stairporn) with beautiful stairs, having one will be an obvious interior detail in our upcoming extension. I especially like floating stairs and have sketched a staircase to the upper floor.
Now the question is how this should be constructed!!
The top seven steps are like a regular spiral staircase similar to the one visible in the ad (attached image). But how can the lower seven steps be constructed (open or closed)?
To complicate matters, there needs to be a staircase going down to the basement underneath. Otherwise, one could have built the steps in lightweight concrete or similar and covered them with oak treads.
The 3D image is from a limited design program, only showing the principle of the staircase.

NICE!
I suspect, from a highly amateur perspective, that you must have a closed staircase, so that the curved treads can rest on the step below the riser, at least the first part before the steps start to become at least somewhat straighter and can rest on the central pole and the stringer.
That's my guess.
