Popular Minimalist Design Styles When it comes to modern home builds and remodeling styles for decks and stairways; cable railing systems avoid ornate detailing and offer clean straight lines. There are few more minimalistic ways to get aesthetics and durability in the same package. The added benefit of extreme transparency and a cost base lower than glass make these systems almost unbeatable. Open Air Spaces and Functional Beauty Open spaces are one of the most popular trends in home remodeling today. We are often removing walls or cutting them down considerably to offer a more open feel in tight spaces. Outdoor applications also yearn for open feel designs to enlarge smaller yards, and enhance views. How do we do this without losing function and safety? We do it with sturdy and minimalist steel frames, low profile top rails, and thin stainless steel cables. The most functionally beautiful railing systems with the sturdiness factor of the walls we remove to build them. Minimalist Stairs and Architectural Integration Mono stringer stairways and open stringer staircases attempt to offer a “floating” aesthetic which has become a design feature in many of the modern builds we visit. When it comes to these stair types; there are few choices suitable to accent this type of architecture. Stainless cable railings systems and thin low profile glass railings are the modern choice for mono stringer stairs and floating staircases. Options for mounting are plentiful via railing posts, pegs, stanchions, and shoe mounted railing systems. Both options provide safety for the user without sacrificing views and providing the ultimate style for low profile stairs. Material choices for minimalist railing systems are most commonly steel, aluminum, stainless steel, and hardwood species that are strong enough to support tension from cables, and weight from heavy duty glass panels. These materials are sturdy and resist corrosion, as well as easily coated with paint or powder. High grade stainless steel can even be bare finished or polished and left unfinished in the toughest conditions Minimalist Railing Safety and Code Compliance Cable railing systems and glass panel railings are code compliant in the state of California.
