The suspended ashlar staircase<\/h1>\n

Choosing a suspended staircase<\/strong> means opting for visual lightness : the ashlar staircase is ethereal and seems to float in the air without any structural support.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Technically the solid stone steps<\/strong> are in fact solidly fixed into the load-bearing wall, a construction that makes the stone staircase totally stable and resistant. The lowering of the load on the first step and the anchoring of the treads in the wall make it possible to achieve this real flight with solid stone<\/strong> (unlike Saracen vaulted masonry made of bricks and plaster), and offers the possibility of a grand aerial staircase with a lighter silhouette.<\/p>\n

Here are a few examples of suspended staircases made to measure in solid cut stone :<\/p>\n
