bottom, as we only can see the treads not the risers (that small inset underneath a step).

[-] NielsBohron@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

And you can see the wear on the treads. plus the handrail mount in the top left would be at a very inconvenient height if we were looking from the bottom up

[-] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 3 weeks ago

The handrail argument doesn't make any sense. It would be at the same height regardless of direction.

[-] eatCasserole@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

Also, the handrail mount is sideways if we're looking down; if we're looking up, it makes sense.

[-] HotsauceHurricane@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Maybe it is a light fixture.

[-] obinice@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

It's at the top, I have that same bannister mount, it points upwards to the banister.

The mattress is wedged at the top of the stairs thanks to its extreme springiness.

[-] YoFrodo@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

It's the top of the stairs because in the top left of thr image you can see the banister support. If the mattresses were at the bottom then the angle of that support would be different

[-] null_dot@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 weeks ago

Why is no one else talking about this.

There's no debate. It's at the top of the stairs.

[-] DmMacniel@feddit.org 0 points 3 weeks ago

when the mattress is at the top, where is gravity and on what is it resting?

You think a folded in half mattress could get stuck in a stairwell? You might be on to something!

[-] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 weeks ago

Some stairs don't have different looking risers, but you're still correct because you can see wear marks from steps on the carpet.

[-] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I think it's bottom too but I don't agree with your reasoning, I've seen steps without that bit.

Edit: actually now I think top, I've been convinced by the daylight argument plus the realization that is a single mattress folded in half (I previously thought it's two mattresses).

Edit: changed my mind again, made a top level comment

[-] franzcoz@feddit.cl 0 points 3 weeks ago

That's what I was thinking too

I mean, it's code for anything built during the age of home electricity.

[-] deranger@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Well, my house has electricity and the stairs do not have that indentation at all. I could take a picture of the steps from the bottom or the top and aside from the wear marks on the treads, you can’t see a difference.
