Modern Stair

What do you think of modern, airy staircases? Part of me likes them, another part feels they don't LOOK sturdy (when in actuality I know they are perfectly safe). This top one we're using at work now as an inspiration for a staircase in my main project which is very modern. I have my misgivings, but I'm sure it will turn out to be beautiful. What do you think?
I like this one much better, it looks grounded somehow with the stringers on the sides of the treads. That, plus this house is CRAZY beautiful ( a fountain under the stair -nice). Check out Edi's Files to see the rest of it HERE.
