Peering into the void (Luftraum)

For a moment today, the temporary covering of the Luftraum (void in the ceiling/floor) adjacent to the staircase was removed.  It was the first chance to see the interplay of the staircase shaft with the opening into the upstairs hallway.

View from inside the front door up through the ceiling/floor

It may not sound much. but it makes the whole thing feel much more 3-dimensional.  You can see right into KZM (Maren's room) from the front door.  In the end the banister/railing around the Luftraum/void will change things again, but I looks pretty good for now.
