The most striking feature of the residence would have to be the staircase. It’s actually the element that gave the residence its name. The floating staircase has a simple and modern design, the stairs are made of wood and match the flooring in the residence. But the guardrail is the element that stands out. When you look at it from the distance it resembles black lace. But it’s actually made of iron, hence the name. It’s a conglomerate of black iron circles of various sizes which are inked together.
