What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Jason Ball Interiors, LLC to Inspiration: The Floating Staircase
Actually suspend the stairs for great effect. Like something out of an M.C. Escher painting, this suspended steel staircase epitomizes floating stairs. The space between the floor and the first step creates an interesting negative space and a visual break between the stone floor and steel treads. Simple steel cables complete the elegant and straightforward design.
added by John Hill to Artful Stairs: Continuity in Steel
This beautiful stair floats one step above the stone floor, The cables on the right suspend the steps from the ceiling and act as a guardrail. Note the angle of the risers, a response to code that requires a 1-inch nose extension, apparently not needed in the previous example.

A site says this about sizes of rail
1/8"
*See note below. Can be used on horizontal railings where there is little or no pedestrian traffic or where railing does not need to meet code requirement (such as where there is little or no drop off).
Can be used on vertical railings, which are not as susceptible to heavy shock loads as horizontal railings.
3/16"
Most commonly used diameter for pedestrian railings.
