Marble Staircase Design: Treads, Risers and Edge Details

Marble staircase design starts with coordinating the treads, risers, landings and exposed edges as one composition. The selected stone creates the visual character, while dimensions, support, surface finish and fabrication details determine how the design can be built.

A successful specification connects appearance with everyday use. Before approving production, establish the staircase geometry, review representative stone samples and agree on the relationship between adjoining pieces. These decisions help the design team, fabricator and installer work from the same information.
