From this picture you can start to see the scupltural affect of the floating stone with a smooth soffit. The steel string is only fixed at the landing and to the concrete slab below.	The steel string in grey and the block section will be covered with a material to suit the clients requirements and match the balistrading. The steel string i s 100mm from the wall with no support coming from it. The wall is actually only a stud partition.	The beautiful curve of the stone with mouldings wrapping around each tread make it a stunning piece of work.
THE BIGGEST ADVANTAGE TO THIS METHOD OF INSTALLATION IS THAT THESE FANTASTIC STAIRCASES CAN NOW BE RETROFITTED TO EXISTING PARTY WALLS OR PLACED IN THE CENTRE OF LARGE ROOMS SO THAT ITS BEAUTY CAN BE SEEN FROM ALL ANGLES. TEMPLESTONE CAN THINK OF MANY WAYS OF ADDING TO THE METHODS USED TO CREATE WORKING SCULPTURES OF SOLID STONE.
