Stairs notebook

My architect laughingly refers to all the open rail-less stairs in the shelter magazines as "stair porn."

Today I discovered there is an actual site by that name.  Rated PG, unless you're a city safety regulator.

from there I found this site:

Earlier this week I got to visit the studio at West Edge Metals, who make some pretty amazing stairs and other architectural metal pieces locally.  I'd love to work with them.  I'm still not clear on what I'd like to do exactly, other than THE STAIRS MUST BE CHANGED.

  2. I'm still in the looking at pictures stage. I'm still not sure exactly what I want to do, and there are a lot more possibilities for stairs than I realized. The visit to West Edge was eye-opening too. So I'm gathering info.
