I am planning to add treads and risers to a set of stairs and thought of an idea, though somewhat unorthodox.
The bottom of the stairs starts from the living room/hall and the floor is Oak stained Honey Maple. The stairs lead to the bedroom with a Hickory or Red Mahogany Oak floor. I often thought of staining the treads Honey Maple and risers RM or vice versa but also thought about starting with the bottom tread and riser with Honey Maple and slowly increasing the darkness to the Red Mahogany. The problem is I have no idea how I would accomplish that or even if I really would want it. I just thought it may be pretty cool looking.
Think this is a weird or cool idea and think it's doable?
