THE SPIRAL STAIR COLLECTION
Elevating grace & space-efficiency to an art form.

The spiral stair has been around for centuries and makes a wonderful complement to any home. Log spirals are most often used as secondary stairs when space is limited. Frequently, they will lead to a loft, master suite, library, or in some cases, a deck. Whether used as a primary or secondary stair, a well-crafted log spiral can act as a focal point to a room and distinguish even the simplest of homes. These stairs are hand crafted from a variety of wood species including pine, spruce and fir, and range in diameters of 5' to 10' or more. StairMeïster has a plethora of resources and can integrate almost any material into your log stairs.

"After I saw my first example
of Stairmeister's work,
I redesigned my whole cabin
to incorporate their stairs"

–Fred Whittaker, South Park, Colorado


THE CLASSIC

The StairMeïster “signature” spiral stair features a
log column, or “tree,” with an optional root flare intact at the base.

1. Spiral
This outstanding one of a kind staircase in Santa Cruz is the result of the collaborative efforts set forth by an inspired architect and a team of highly skilled and imaginative log stairway building professionals.
2. Constructed Around "Massive Redwoods"
Inspired by the grandeur of surrounding coastal Cedars and Redwoods, this staircase invites the organic sensations of nature indoors.
3. Expansive Treads of Douglas Fir Timber
The accommodating treads, which measure nearly 2’ wide and 4’ across, are hand crafted from old growth Douglas Fir Timbers reclaimed from a 1880’s vintage railroad trestle.
