Seattle Stair & Design’s Shawn Christman will join fellow stair builders at the National Stairway Manufacturers’ Association’s Conference in Reno this weekend.
Expanding on the SMA’s mission to foster the “growth and prosperity” of the stair building industry and craft, the annual conference provides educational seminars, opportunities for networking, and a peer based design competition.
The design competition, in tandem with the SMA’s legacy of preserving the aesthetic of the stair through building code reform, has been a large draw to the conference since its conception.
“When Seattle Stair & Design joined the SMA, we thought we may have a chance at the design competition,” explains Christman. “We are currently four-for-four. No one else has won four in a row—so I suppose we were correct in our hunch.”
Regardless of this year’s design competition outcome, Christman looks forward to the opportunity to “touch base stair builders I have met across the country” and indulge in his craft.
