EDGE HOUSE STAIR luminaire

Edge House is located in the Missouri Ozarks. Derek Porter Studio designed the comprehensive project lighting which led to two custom lighting elements: a chandelier over the dining room table and a custom stair luminaire.

The stair is a prominent sculptural element puncturing vertically through the house. A custom luminaire was designed and integrated into the stair railing to further transcend the stair identity. Two design variations facilitate side and top mounting requirements based upon the railing design across the 3 story staircase. Luminaires magnetically secure to the railing allowing for a more expedient installation and field adjusted alignment. Careful coordination with the architect and contracting team was required to sequence trades and the installation process, including wire routing, structural assembly and luminaire mounting. Nearly 200 individual luminaires ensure consistent illumination between rails, light the stair treads and celebrate the featured presence of the sculptural stair as an architectural chandelier.
