Exclusive Stairs for Potsdam

STAIRS FOR POTSDAM

Potsdam, the capital of Brandenburg, is a city full of charm and cultural treasures. From Sanssouci Palace and the New Palace to its stunning parks, the Dutch Quarter, the Glienicke Bridge, and the Barberini Museum, it’s no wonder visitors from around the world are drawn here. Locals, too, love the city for its high quality of life. With around 190,000 residents, this former Prussian royal city offers a perfect mix of tranquility, nature, and easy access to Berlin’s lively urban scene.

Our design stairs are unique and are individually handcrafted in our in-house manufactory. With decades of experience and a true passion for what we do, we’re proud to be your trusted partner for staircase design.

Our Reference in Potsdam

In addition to its world-famous palaces, gardens, and museums, Potsdam now also boasts a staircase by markiewicz. This classic stringer staircase captures the bourgeois and exclusive essence of Brandenburg’s capital and impresses with its elegance and the ornamental, handcrafted railing. The design, created by markiewicz, was met with great enthusiasm by both the property owners and the renowned interior designer Herrendorf. A true visual delight, the metal railing is defined by its soft, feminine, and undoubtedly perfect form reminiscent of a tuning fork. The harmony and fluidity of the staircase railing were also reflected in the exceptionally pleasant collaboration with the project partners, which we still look back on with great fondness.

Award-Winning Wooden Stairs by Markiewicz

At markiewicz, crafting staircases is more than just a profession—it's our passion. That’s why we are deeply honored that three of our staircases have been awarded the prestigious title of “Staircase of the Year.”

In 2012, we won in the category “Extravagance” with our exclusive stringer staircase in the Art Deco style, realized in a city villa in Berlin. The staircase features white lacquered stringers made of ash wood, paired with steps of smoked oak. This wooden staircase was completed with a forged railing adorned with characteristic Art Deco ornaments.

The same honor was bestowed upon us in 2018 for one of our most intricate staircase designs. With stylistic influences from Antoni Gaudí, this organic staircase was brought to life with an extraordinary, hand-carved railing. Now recognized as perhaps Berlin’s most artistically ambitious wooden staircase, it graces a penthouse in the heart of the capital.

In 2019, we received yet another “Staircase of the Year” award, this time in the category “Architecture.” In collaboration with Prof. Dr.-Ing. Architect Paul Kahlfeldt, this Art Deco masterpiece was crafted for a villa in Berlin. The bold design contrasts featured black granite steps and intricately profiled hardwood stringers, flawlessly paired with a meticulously executed metal railing, completing this architectural triumph.
