What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by decordemon to Balusters: Big Impact with Not-So-Big Details
Clean, classic contemporary. While this style pretty much lacks balusters altogether, the idea is still there. Sticking with this no-nonsense look is a great way to let other architectural elements take center stage, such as the amazing windows and rough texture of the stacked stone wall in this space.
