Travertine stone steps appear weightless, transcending up the first level of this staircase. The travertine stone wraps a steel structure that was not only designed to be hidden, it was also designed to support the weight of the stone. To attach the glass railings to the stair, we made custom standoffs to allow the attachments to be concealed behind the travertine. The glass railings add a touch of glitz and glamour to this modern home.
