So it comes we a ready made dog kennel! Just add the door. (I’d say it would serve as a playpen as well, but I’m sure that would be some sort of safety violation)
I’m so confused why this was necessary. Why not just have a straight railing across? You could use the space for decorative purposes - it can be easily accessed and cleaned from the stairs. This is just bizarre.
What I’m thinking is removing the railings from around the outcrop and have the railing to all the way to the stair (so that you can’t walk onto the outcrop anymore). Then the outcrop is the perfect place for a model of some kind. Like a countryside train model or a city model or the likes. Something that is just for looks cause there’s no practical reason to walk onto such a tiny outcrop. It’d be a great use of the space and a nice place to display such a thing such that anyone walking up or down the stairs can appreciate it from different angles.
If removing the railing is not an option, that’s a perfect spot for some hanging plants. (looks like it has enough light as well). Now I want a stairway that I can put a train model in.
Make it even better, instead of keeping it a flat surface, cut a slope down towards the stairs. Then you get to wander around the model. See it from not just several, but dozens of points of view both vertically and horizontally. Really turn it into a unique part of the house.
This is the kind of "feature" that would get me into model trains. Having the ability to circle it, going up and down at the same time, would be quite awesome indeed
I suspect that part is like that because there’s a closet right there, if you were to slope it the closet space might suffer. I’m 100 percent behind your idea though.
