Irrespective of the decor which is simply not my style, I love the staircase. If I could however make one slight change, the 3 decorative balusters might be replaced to match the others.

The element of "Line" really stands out here between the railing and the carpet. Very well balanced.

The use of this much line won't appeal to everyone.

It is a beautiful staircase. Maybe the owner is a photographer

I would have to remove the bust and large gold framed picture.

I like the photos going up the stairs and the old/more modern mix.

Remove that large, gold framed portrait and it might grow on me.

I see the theme of musicians' photos on the stairway wall. One looks like Mick Jagger. Odd. Seems out of place, time and character for the room.

For me, ANY house with an upstairs is an automatic no.

Well, I'd like a grander one and get rid of the clutter! I would love to have a really curved one!

With the exception of the location of the gold framed artwork and the light, prefer a chandelier, it is a very appealing look for me!

Get rid of that gosh awful huge mirror on the side that is hideous & all the pictures/stuff/lighting fixture that aren't my style. The buffet can stay....maybe. The chairs have to go. And I'd want different carpet or no carpet to show more of the beautiful hardwood floor/steps!!

Love the staircase. Remove most of the items on the table, except for the lamp. It is lovely.

What a fabulous entrance you could make coming down that staircase.

@magicmoodz I agree completely!!! I'd change out those balusters to match the others or replace them and add more with something I liked better.

I think the staircase is lovely. Don't care for the pics going up the stairs. The table needs to be cleared off......too cluttered. It looks like the wall behing the table is a mirror. That and the chandelier would have to go.

I love it! I think the mirror is very cool.

It's beautiful, but I would remove the gold picture, and add a more ornate chandelier!

The staircase is magnificent. I spy Marilyn Monroe, Salvador Dali, Mick Jagger, John Lennon, Jim Morrison, Dean Martin, and Aretha Franklin on the piano with Ray Charles.
