Stairs are the vertical circulation pieces that connect floors at different heights. Windrose offers 21 stair pieces including straight stairs, corner stairs, spiral stairs, and pier stairs, each in multiple material tiers. They are part of the wider Building Pieces set and snap onto Floors and Foundations.
Type | Variants | Role |
|---|---|---|
Straight Stairs | Sticks, Mahogany, Stone, Planks, Weathered Log | Standard rectangular staircase rising one full wall-height per piece. |
Corner Stairs | Mahogany, Stone | L-shaped staircase that turns 90 degrees midway up. |
Stair Corner (Stone) | Stone only | Alternate corner piece for stone staircase layouts. |
Spiral Stairs | Left, Right | Tight spiral staircase for tower interiors. Left and Right variants let you choose the turn direction. |
Plank Stairs (Planks) | Planks only | Narrow plank-only staircase for small cabin upper floors. |
Pier variant | Shoreline stairs used to descend from a pier deck to water level. | |
Ramp (Planks) | Planks only | Smooth sloped ramp with no steps; useful where a clean incline suits the build better than stairs. |
Handrails are decorative and do not affect movement. They are listed under the Handrails sub-group and are placed separately on top of stairs or along balconies.

Stairs are built from the same raw materials as the rest of the structural set. The cheapest tiers use Plant Fiber or Wood, while the estate-grade tiers consume Stone. Each piece previews as a silhouette before placement, and dismantling a placed stair returns 100% of its materials, so you can re-shape a stairwell freely while iterating on a floor plan.
Spiral stairs fit in a 2x2 footprint and are ideal for towers. Choose Left or Right based on which direction you want players to turn when ascending.
Plank Stairs are the cheapest option; one full staircase costs Wood x10 or less.
Corner Stairs save floor space in tight layouts. They cost more than straight stairs but replace two pieces with one.
Add a Fence or Rope Railings along the open side of an upper-floor landing to avoid falling.
Stone stairs match Stone walls cleanly. Keep material tiers consistent for a unified estate look.
