One Floor-Two Stairs

[Hartono]

I'm Hartono, 24, come from Indonesia
I've heard that one floor with two stairs is not good. Is it right ? If it is right how can I prevent the bad impact.

Dear Hartono,
Grateful if you can clarify further. Do you mean that your home has two set of stairs or is it the building that you live has two set of stairs.
Usually, if it is the building, this could be due to fire regulations where many buildings have two set of stairs on both sides.
For stairs in the home, (interior) of the home:
1. The stairs should not be located at the centre of the house.
2. The stairs should have a turn or landing and not be one long set of steps.
3. Where possible avoid spiral staircases.
4. The steps should not be directly seen from the main entrance door.
5. It is ok to have to sets of stairs in the house. This is acceptable especially if one side of the stairs is on one side of the external wall.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
