Hello everyone,

since I noticed the topic about stair dimensions in another thread and have been uncertain for a few weeks whether the stair measurements are acceptable, I’m bringing it here for discussion.

My only experience is with the stairs at my parents’ house, which are 2.30m x 1.65m (7 ft 7 in x 5 ft 5 in) and, in my opinion, comfortable to use.

Attached is the image with the measurements provided by the architect. The stairwell dimensions are exactly 2m x 2m (6 ft 7 in x 6 ft 7 in).

What do you think?

Maybe concrete would be a good choice? In this picture, it looks like using it saves the side support—gaining 5cm (2 inches).

From a structural perspective, I would expect that concrete requires a bit more mass and therefore more space.

Now I must have missed something. It says 2 children and no more are expected. Upstairs, there are 2 children's bedrooms and a study drawn in. I assume the rooms are going to be swapped, or has another child been added?

Where can this be seen? Do I need to look for it? Is it worth it?

I was referring to this:

A bit confusing here.

More would, of course, be a disadvantage.
This steel staircase here also looks quite narrow, or is that just an impression? Open on the lower left side. I would find that cool.

I think it looks visually appealing. I like it...
