Ascendo Floating Stairs

A Contemporary range of floating stairs

Often constructed using wood, glass and steel, floating stairs are aptly named, as every step is positioned to seem self-supporting. Appearing to defy gravity, these stair treads look weightless while remaining entirely stable.

The Ascendo range of floating stairs are designed to be both a functional and eye-catching design feature. It’s not surprising they’re often the first choice of residential and commercial property owners who value architectural details. Delivering on clean uncluttered lines, the Ascendo range of beautiful staircase designs can reiterate the colours, textures and materials of an existing design palette. Elevating the function of a staircase, to an ultimate wow factor.
