Stairway Gallery Ideas

Greetings, design people!

 I have been gathering these  ( I call them stair-galleries)  images for a while. 

 I want you to see what I consider to be a wide variety of  smart, appealing

 and creative stairway / stairwell magic.

(isn't this space amazing!?)

I suppose that with the right artist you could really design a stairway to match this:

And, if you don't have stairways to display artwork, 

find some artwork to display stairs! ha-ha!...

but seriously, look at how cool this artwork is:

That's not all there is, as you probably know. 

For example, have you seen the stairwell with the rug-beater collection?

 It's awesome.

Pearl of  (dare-I-say-it) Wisdom  from Valerie:

Unless the weather is Frightful, 

go out and do something Delightful!

Solar Flare Flair -- DIY and More

A chunk of sun...Magnetic fields are disrupted.

Communications are disrupted. Electricity is disrupted. The sky is beautiful.

Nature's  Design.

Which we love to copy.

Here is an image to keep, a Solar Flare Sunset:

Charged Particles are  Gorgeous!

This shot of the solar flares, taken recently by NASA,

 would also look great framed and up on a wall:

As would this sweet mirror:

Wow...

                                                                        telegraph.co.uk

     This certainly gives you a sense of being, um, overwhelmed, and may call for sunglasses...

       This calls for applause:  Solar-inspired D-I-Y

Unfathomable...

P.S..........................    


    According to :

The coronal mass ejection (CME), reached Earth at around 5:45 am EST on Thursday (3-8-2012) according to officials at the Space Weather Prediction Center of the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. But it was more of a “glancing blow” than a full on collision, thankfully.

The impact will continue to affect Earth today according to Space.com, but the storm has now been classified as “moderate” as of midnight last night (EST). The effects have been the greatest over the polar caps.
