Everything is studied to be as practical, attractive, and simple as possible. In the specific case of the staircase it HAS to be quite a powerful 'statement', because the room is so large. If it was just a puny little standard stairs it would look ridiculous.

Architects are not artists and never will be. Bad architecture is the only crime that should receive capital punishment.

I hope you are not going to do anything too tricky to that barn in an attempt to become uber French trendy:)rallentandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06980559347805844568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-19832212837776102952014-07-09T08:44:34.655+01:002014-07-09T08:44:34.655+01:00Sounds interesting!
