Staircase

The caged staircase was designed by architect Patrick Ousey, with whom Flournoy collaborated in the home’s design. Although initially unconvinced by the staircase detail, “it is a great example of how collaboration brings in different perspectives,” says Flournoy.

Stainless-steel cables along the stairs function as a second railing without blocking views through the adjacent windows.

The architects used cedar slats to enclose a steel-and-concrete staircase that leads to the master bedroom upstairs.
