Base
6 pieces
6×Black Plate 2 x 16

This azure course marks the floor between storeys. Over the doorway, use a lime 1x8 Technic brick instead: one of its holes carries the door axle. This time the side walls run the full depth and the front and back walls fit between them, so every corner overlaps the course below.
