I wasn't there when the builder was setting up the forms, but I have seen similar details formed with rigid insulation cut to the exact form dimensions. The under tread lights are LED strips and there are lights in the landings which are made by BK Lighting. These small LED lights wash across the landings when they're on.

Sorry it took so long to answer, something changed with my houzz settings and I just found out you asked a question. I was the lighting designer on the project, but you may want to contact the architect to get the answer. You can find their site here: http://www.houzz.com/pro/mosaicarchitects/mosaic-architects-boulder . Good luck

Assuming the steps are poured concrete. How did you setup the form/step for the lighting accent? LED? Also, it appears that the landings have flat-projecting lights on them? What are they?

Is this LED wet tape lighting ?

Yes, we used a wet location listed LED tape light under each step. Mounting is always something that needs to be figured out, here we used an aluminum mounting channel.

Thx.
