Stairway Gallery Ideas

Greetings, design people!

 I have been gathering these  ( I call them stair-galleries)  images for a while. 

 I want you to see what I consider to be a wide variety of  smart, appealing

 and creative stairway / stairwell magic.

(isn't this space amazing!?)

I suppose that with the right artist you could really design a stairway to match this:

And, if you don't have stairways to display artwork, 

find some artwork to display stairs! ha-ha!...

but seriously, look at how cool this artwork is:

That's not all there is, as you probably know. 

For example, have you seen the stairwell with the rug-beater collection?

 It's awesome.

Tweaking the Design

Style has been tweaked a bit in these images. Wonderfully. 

 First, 3 Karin Blake designs. She was doing this work for years before most. Her mix-it-up, folk-industrial, very clean style is still ahead of the game. Awesome:

And the creative flow continues with many other designers. I've see a lot more experimentation lately on standard styles without actually breaking the mold.
I love all of the ideas here: using subtle detail or combinations of style or color to make a mark on the otherwise ordinary room.:

Sparks of originality and creativity are peeking through in each of these rooms.

  Within a "mainstream" format. That's NOT easy. Standard framework , yet managing to surprise and inspire. I love that.
