For Loft Stairs, Consider Alternating Treads Staircase
Providing access to a loft can be challenging, since you may not want to put in a full-fledge space-hogging staircase. But building regulations in many areas require more than a fancy ladder.
Well, an alternating treads staircase is a practical way to satisfy building codes and create passage up to a loft while not taking up much space (because the going is shorter and the pitch steeper).
You can find various alternating tread stairs out there, or you can have one built to suit if you're crafting your home from scratch.
Shown here is the Lupus staircase from the Loft Shop.
