Antique style is particularly popular in staircase styles and models, so you can often find aged marble staircases. Such marble not only looks if it has been polished by centuries, but its surface feels warmer and impregnated with sun light. Aged marble staircases are especially effective details for halls, living rooms or halls of prestigious offices. Besides, antique marble is not as dangerous as polished marble, so staircases do not become slippery even if you spill water on them.

Available space is a main factor when it comes to choosing forms of staircases. Straight-stair type is the easiest and the most available type of staircases. But since staircases with a ladder platform (for example, L-and U-shaped models) are safer and easier to use they are more popular than straight-stair models. Circular staircases take less precious floor space, but can be impractical.
