Stairs - Before & After

Originally the stairs went from the kitchen straight down to my studio. To get anywhere else in the basement you had to go through my studio.

Now the stairs go from the new room into the middle of the basement. The stairs go one flight, turn and then continue one more flight and end in the center of the basement. The second flight of stairs uses the same space that the previous stairs were in. The upper space will be used as a pantry in the kitchen.

Found Space - we realized there would be a large space that is above the head room of the lower flight of stairs and behind the pantry. So we had them floor it so that we can use it as storage. We will create access to it in the future through the back of a bedroom closet.

That is Hershey in the last picture. The white door to the left of the stairs is what will be the pantry.
