Ok, I am doing a home with a second story along with a basement, I want to use the same foot print on the stairs, meaning I would like to run my basement stairs directly under my main floor stairs to upstairs, help, I have tried everything and I seem to either not have them anymore or having stairs to heaven. I want to keep the open concept on the main floor while not creating another opening to get to the basement, my head says it should work but it doesn't. Help need ideas.
