A Home Trend Called The “Inaccessible Landing” Is All The Rage And People Are Wondering Why They Even Exist
by Matthew Gilligan
I’ve seen these things before in houses and I always thought to myself…well, that’s odd…and what’s the point of that?!?!
I’m talking about those landings above doors in foyers in suburban homes that no one can reach without a ladder.
What’s going on up there…?
And it turns out that I’m not the only person who thinks this way because a lot of folks on Twitter have been talking about “inaccessible landings” lately.

This person has seen it before…
This looks oddly familiar…

Another Twitter user shared an interesting photo.

Another person had a different approach.
I would decorate it the same as any shelf basically. You just have to get the balance and scale right. Much larger items. You could even make it a focal point like this which I think looks quite nice. pic.twitter.com/0Xb4bQOoKP

And then there was this idea.

This became a trending idea, so Chipotle had to throw its hat into the ring…
