“Most staircases are open, minimalistic staircases, but you still need a railing, and we really like the look of a stainless-steel cable railing,” says Ryan Hanson, Partner at Sustainable Nine Design + Build in Minneapolis.
Other infill options for stainless-steel railings include glass, bar or wire mesh panels.
“We’ve also done some three-season porches where we use railing and screens on the outside of them, and I think it looks fantastic,” Hanson says.
