    I have those stairs with that carpet.

    💯% this is looking down to a mattress at the bottom of the stairs.

    Conclusive evidence:
    Looking Down

    Looking Up

    (Sorry I was too lazy to get the low perspective)

      Not convinced. It’s a different set of stairs and a different carpet. I have had stairs with a carpet more similar to the OP that did not have a riser. See elsewhere in these comments for a photo of these stairs, now bare. In the distant past, they were carpeted.

        I think they’re cheap stairs without the bullnose. Makes it way easier to carpet. By the looks of the trim this is not a fancy apartment. The lack of bullnose contributes to the optical illusion.
