Looking for inspiration for your future open riser staircase? Choosing the right type of staircase is no easy task. There are many criteria to consider before choosing the perfect staircase style. <\/p>\n\n

An open riser staircase is becoming increasingly common. Its many advantages make it the ideal staircase for large open spaces<\/strong>, where taking charge of the aesthetics of your staircase takes on its full meaning. But that\u2019s not all! <\/p>\n\n

In this article, discover the many advantages of an open riser staircase and the different models developed<\/strong> and offered by JOA. All adapted to multiple configurations and promising an elegant, subtle design down to the smallest detail. <\/p>\n\n

The advantages of an open riser staircase<\/h2>\n\n

More and more people are coming to us with a request for an open riser staircase. While some are still hesitant, others are convinced of the benefits of a riserless staircase. Let us tell you about the many advantages of this type of staircase. <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n
\"Complex<\/figure>\n\n
<\/div>\n\n

Luminous<\/h3>\n\n

Its strength lies in its ability to preserve the maximum amount of light in the room<\/strong>. The fact that the structure is completely open allows light to pass between each step. It goes without saying that it is highly recommended in dark spaces to provide visibility, particularly under the staircase. Gone are the days of dark stairwells: light is brought in, with the added bonus of shadows that vary throughout the day. <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

Visually enlarges space<\/h3>\n\n

Having a staircase without risers not only saves space, it also reduces the visual impact<\/strong> of the staircase. Its minimal footprint naturally gives the impression of a larger, more open space. In a narrow corridor, for example, it minimizes the visual impact in the room and the impression of congested space. <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

Easy to maintain<\/h3>\n\n

Beyond its visual appeal, choosing an open riser staircase is also advantageous in terms of cleaning<\/strong>. The absence of a riser limits the number of nooks and crannies where dust can collect. But you also limit the shoe marks that can often be found on risers. <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

Silent<\/h3>\n\n

By eliminating risers, the structure of a staircase suddenly loses the resonance box<\/strong> it creates naturally. Noise is no longer amplified. What\u2019s more, an open riser staircase eliminates the need for wood joints, thereby eliminating the risk of creaking. <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

Under staircase usable<\/h3>\n\n

Contrary to popular belief, an open riser staircase is just as suitable for integrating certain pieces of furniture in the sloping section<\/strong>. If the idea is always to bring in light, we\u2019re more likely to propose furniture that isn\u2019t too bulky. We can optimize this space by integrating a desk, TV cabinet, sideboard or other piece of furniture. At JOA, we like to create links between different elements. That\u2019s why we tend to extend certain steps to create part of the furniture. <\/p>\n\n

Choosing the right model of your riserless staircase<\/h2>\n\n

Now that you\u2019re convinced that the open riser staircase is the model for you, let\u2019s move on to the two possible staircase structures. The choice of structure is determined by your architecture and what it can do. It can be a freestanding staircase or a suspended staircase. <\/p>\n\n

Once again, the structure will play a decisive role in the style and aesthetics of your staircase. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to be aware of the models on offer. <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

Self-supporting staircase<\/h3>\n\n

Our freestanding open riser staircases can be either solid wood or a combination of wood and steel. <\/p>\n\n

Our Libro models are ideal for small spaces. They are often used for ancillary rooms<\/strong>, such as mezzanines or studios. Our self-supporting staircases without risers are available in two different models. <\/p>\n\n

These types of staircase optimize the space underneath<\/strong>, especially with a library corner. Their unique, warm design is reassuringly sturdy. They can be configured to suit the ideal layout of your interior, adding a dynamic, sophisticated touch to your space. <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

Suspended open riser staircase<\/h3>\n\n

If you\u2019re looking for grandeur and lightness<\/strong>, a suspended open riser staircase is sure to win you over. Their airy structure gives them an elegant allure. The staircase sublimates the space while adding a dynamic effect thanks to the play of shadows created around the staircase. <\/p>\n\n

JOA offers two models of suspended riserless staircases. You\u2019ll find the Up model and the Canva model. Although both feature solid wood treads and metal structures, they differ in design. <\/p>\n\n
