Look after your staircase... It may be the only diagonal you've got (2)

    

              In look after your staircase... It may be the only diagonal you've got (1) I was in raptures over the Nelson Stair in the Courthold Institute, Somerset House, and rather flippantly bemoaned that it is rare to see such flamboyant design in modern buildings. Of course, there are many modern flamboyant stairs and I thought that I would share a few that I like in the hope that they might inspire. 

Alex King is an architect and his design 'Santiago Townhouse' won the British Homes Awards in 2011 - Alex King Design / Designalexable, examples of his latest work can be seen at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yGQhlRz8mc

     What a joy to walk up and down the Nelson Stair in the Somerset House, and what a shame that it is so rare to see such flamboyant design in modern buildings. This is a staircase as an event. Visit it if you get the chance....
