The unusual position of the mid-landing stairway provided some interesting design challenges. To open up the entry into the basement and provide what architects call the "WOW" factor, we turned the staircase at the base and supported the first floor stairway wall with a laminated beam that cantilevers over the foyer. This opened up the foyer and greatly contributed to the first impression and functionality of the foyer.
RAH Designs in Oswego Illinois greatly contributed to the design of this space.
