Dark wood stairs white risers.
It would make the steps easier to see in the dark.
A lot of stairway trim and risers get painted in white or off white cloud white being the default choice.
The look is almost dramatic so much so that the stairway itself becomes the focal point by just painting it.
I like the white better.
In spite of some white trim at the lower sides of the walls it is about impossible to see.
Asap i plan to paint the risers white stain the treads to match the hardwood floor and paint the walls a light color.
It needed a lot of maintenance for chips and scratches and dirt.
We painted floors and stairs white using a ronseal diamond hard floor paint in our last house.

While i would love to hardwood the stairs and have a carpet runner down the middle budget doesn t allow for it.
So i can either entirely carpet both treads and risers or carpet treads and paint risers white worried about scuff marks or stain risers dark.
Thinking of trying it on existing pine stair tread and risers or maybe retro to red oak or white oak wood.
In the house i just bought the stairs and risers are painted dark blue as are the walls of the staircase.
