This little post was missed out of the March unveiling. So for completeness here are some photos of the finished staircase and galleries...
I am so glad we had solid slabs of marble laid for the steps, as the join lines in tiles would have done my head in. I am also fond of the non-slip tread which was laser-cut into the top of each of the risers.
The hand rail is not as obtrusive as I had imagined it, which is good.
Now we just need to wait for the art to arrive. In the meantime the upstairs landing and long gallery are rather spartan...
Above: The reflection of the light in the polished marble.
Below: A quiet corner to sit awhile, with flowers and our guest book.
Above: The long gallery, with 2 bronze busts and a large Italian painting. I would like to place a long line of busts down it like this...
And in time swap the painting for a mirror...
Another beautiful job, guys. Well done
