We look at why a heavy marble base brings stability on uneven floors, how to plan carrying it up narrow loft stairs, and how white, black, green and warm toned marble respond to skylight. There is advice on base size, lighting the whole loft, matching lamps to bedrooms, offices and guest rooms, supporting furniture, sockets along knee walls and managing skylights after dark....
