White wrought iron railings for London townhouses

This grand multi-storey staircase embodies the elegance of symmetry and flow. A sweeping sculptural form defines the architecture, while finely detailed black balustrades add rhythm and refinement to every level. The visual contrast between soft white curves and sharp metal lines results in a design that’s both powerful and graceful.

This grand multi-storey staircase embodies the elegance of symmetry and flow. A sweeping sculptural form defines the architecture, while finely detailed black balustrades add rhythm and refinement to every level. The visual contrast between soft white curves and sharp metal lines results in a design that’s both powerful and graceful.

Commissioned for a luxury residence in Kingston, this balustrade system was fabricated entirely from laser-cut steel components. Every spindle was drilled and mounted directly into the concrete substructure, while the top rail was TIG welded for a seamless finish. The result is not just a handrail, but an architectural gesture of precision and permanence.

Key Spaces

Central Staircase Core:

The staircase wraps three storeys of the mansion in an elegant ribbon-like form. Its dramatic curvature creates a continuous movement, while the custom balustrades introduce order and restraint — balancing softness with structure.

Entry & Transition Zones:

As one ascends, the design offers uninterrupted sightlines through each floor. The open risers and clean railings preserve spatial transparency, connecting each level while maintaining safety and sophistication.

Material & Detail Integration:

The black balustrade seamlessly meets the white staircase stringers, showcasing meticulous fabrication. The soft reflections on the metal surface contrast beautifully against wood and marble treads.

Details

Color Palette:

Matte black steel contrasts with off-white architectural molding and neutral walls. Natural materials like dark oak and veined marble add richness and warmth, elevating the overall harmony of the interior.

Materials and Craftsmanship:

Laser-cut mild steel, TIG-welded joints, and direct-concrete spindle mounting reflect industrial precision adapted to luxury settings. Every segment was fabricated at Porfan’s workshop and installed with exacting accuracy.

Engineering & Installation:

Due to the staircase’s scale and curved geometry, precise alignment and secure anchoring were essential. All components were dry-fitted and finished onsite to meet luxury-grade installation standards, with minimal tolerance for deviation.
