Good evening!
1. We would really appreciate your feedback on whether it makes sense to fully close the stairwell opening up to the ceiling in a small staircase or not.
What looks better, nicer, less awkward, and above all, cooler?
2. The open stairwell opening measures 68cm x 47cm (27 inches x 18.5 inches).
3. When closed, the interior space of the stairwell, including the floor area, is 45cm x 36cm (18 inches x 14 inches). It could be used to install a built-in cabinet.
4. Do you have photos of closed stairwell openings? Perhaps even with cabinets or shelves?
Open:
Closed:
Thanks to all of you!

You are great and you are right.
By now, I am leaning either towards a fully open stairwell with a steel railing or something like this—so the stairwell/niche is closed off with a cabinet on top.
The advantage is that the handrail is on the inside, and the cabinet width does not decrease due to shifting the niche.
