Stair runners are a popular choice for enhancing the beauty and safety of your staircase. They not only add a touch of elegance and style to your home but also provide a non-slip surface for walking up and down the stairs. However, when it comes to finishing the landings, many homeowners may be unsure of the best approach. In this blog, we will discuss some tips and ideas on how to finish your stair landing when using stair runners.

1. Mitered Corners:

 

On stair runner installations where you have a half or quarter turn landings, a sophisticated way to change direction is to have the corners mitered.

Keeping the same width of runner on the turns also creates a visual path inviting you up the stairs.



2. Layered Look:

 

Alternatively you can opt for the stair runner to be overlaid creating a layered and textured look. This stair landing design idea works well with a stripe stair runner patterns as it leads you up and down the staircase.





3. Wall to Wall Cover:

 

If you prefer a different look for your landing, you can consider installing a landing rug,

flat-weave stair runner lengths are sewn together in order to cover a larger space and keep the pattern cohesive.

A landing rug can add a pop of colour or pattern to your landing area, creating a focal point and enhancing the overall aesthetic of your staircase.

Choose a rug that complements the design and colour scheme of your stair runner for a cohesive look.

One simple and effective way to finish your stair landing is to have carpet on the entire landing area.

By choosing a carpet in a complimenting colour to the stair runner, creates a cohesive look and ensures a seamless transition from the stairs to the landing.

5. Area Rugs:

 

For those who want something a bit more flexible, opt for an area rug in a matching or complimentary design.

This is a great choice if you like to change up your home decor between seasons.

Go for a natural fibre or cotton rug in the summer and a wool or shaggy rug for the colder months.

Just ensure that you lay an anti-slip underlay under your rug or you will need to re-adjust it regularly (AKA daily!)
