Default May the best man win!

There's really nothing to win but try if you will.

What are you looking at and why does it look that way?

If anybody guess's right in the first 3 tries than I'll have to make things way more difficult for round II.

Pic is upside down and shows lack of insulation. Is that a pivot bracket for a swinging door ?

The shots were taken pointing down towards the floor.

The room with the warmer floor has a window which allows the sun's radiation to warm the floor.

Good guess but would there be a straight line at the door?

I say Linas is right , The other possibility floor is wet (tile or vinyl) Without seeing regular pictures it is hard to say. I think it is a bathroom looking at the cabinet close to the door.

Is it unheated/uninsulated/cooler area below "closet" room...like a cantilevered floor system? Near room is closer to room temperature @ 70-71 degrees F.

Not sure what the warm area at the rear of the "closet" is though.

I think it can be all of the above. Is this really testing knowledge or how good you can guess?
