black and white staircase poetry

Posted by: DesignFlute on: October 7, 2007

Staircases fascinate me to no end. As I have a small home I want to incorporate only its elements. Simple solution is to have a staircase-look cabinet but that box-furniture does not appeal to me!

At the moment I have no clue as to how I am going to bring elements of staircase in overall design without curbing space!

I am searching…..

Meanwhile I am (seating cross legged, my face resting on left hand) looking at the poetry in these two staircases-wide eyed!

Stairway to heaven :) these 2 are masterful! They are strong yet graceful.

Anrosh,
this is a lovely suggestion! know of a good painting which I can copy? I remember a painting called ‘dreams’ ( not sure though) of salvador Dali but that is too out of this world!
