The Transparency Trend: Why Glass Staircases Are Taking Over Glass staircases are becoming increasingly popular in modern home design. More architects and interior designers are opting for these see-through stairs made of glass panes framed in metal or wood. What's behind the growing trend? For starters, glass stairs make a striking visual statement. The transparent material allows natural light to flow through and gives an airy, open feel to any space. Going with glass treads rather than opaque materials provides a contemporary minimalist look. The stairs appear lightweight and almost floating - especially when backlit! But glass stairs aren't just about aesthetics. They also have some practical advantages: Illumination - Glass steps allow light into basement levels and windowless spaces. This enhances safety and visibility. Space - Glass treads don't require as much underlying structural support as traditional wooden steps, so they maximise open space beneath. Durability - Modern glass stair treads are made of tempered safety glass. This makes them more durable and shatter-resistant than standard glass. So if you're looking to offer glass staircases to your customers - we have a range of products to help make their design dreams a reality. #glassstaircase #staircasedesign #staircases #moderndesign #architecturalglass
