This is the landing at the top of the stairs in the Mud and Wood House, complete with child stair-gate made from hazel. A large roof-light allows light to pour down into the space. The glass blocks (on the right hand side of the photo) connect into the Sunset Lounge, allowing the glorious colours of sunset to stream into the stairwell. The central tree trunk was provided by the photographer, Steve Rogers, when its roots had become unstable and it was in danger of landing on his house.

A small hanging garden feature creates an interesting focal point between the living room and formal dining room. With the exception of the dining room, the first floor is open in all public areas, which perfectly accommodates Raymond's and Jennifer's penchant for entertaining.
The painted black runner was added once Jennifer decided to remove the carpeting from the steps. It visually supports the decor of the rest of the room, and in turn becomes a highlight of the space rather than an afterthought.
