Self supporting landing Gooseneck Center of the stairwell showing from the top landing down to basement floor with no inner support walls Self supporting landing Center of the stairwell showing from the top landing down to basement floor with no inner support walls
This image shows a plan view of the entire stair system notice how you can see all the railings from top to bottom. There are 2 intermittent landings between the floor levels that are self supporting. This image also show the use of goosenecks in succession. The illustration of the C1S stringer configuration is accentuated showing the top view of the treads with returns, notice the miters in the front right corner of the steps. Also note the way the edge of the tread goes back behind the one above it,  and how the balusters sit down on the surface of each step. The returns add a polished look to the tread edge instead of showing the end growth of the wood if no return were present which may be desirable in a more rustic setting.
