Wooden Stairs: Thick Treads and Turns

A sturdy wooden staircase in a mountain cabin. The treads are solid pieces of old wood, 8 cm thick, with edges worn smooth from use. The stringers are equally heavy wooden planks. The staircase is narrow and steep, with a right-angle landing in the middle. The handrail is a rough log or a thick wooden board, fixed to the wall. The balusters are simple square wooden posts. There are clear signs of wear on the treads.
Avoid: Lightweight stairs using metal and glass, wide and gentle stairs, thin treads and delicate balusters, stained and painted wood.

一座厚實的山屋木樓梯。踏板是一整塊厚達八公分的舊木,邊緣被走得圓潤;側梁是同樣厚重的木板。樓梯窄而陡,中間有一個直角的轉折平台。扶手是一根粗糙的圓木或一片厚木板,固定在牆上;欄杆是幾根簡單的方形木柱。踏板上有明顯的磨損痕跡。避免:使用鐵件與玻璃的輕量樓梯、把樓梯做得寬緩、使用薄的踏板與精緻的欄杆、把木材染色與上漆。
