Still thinking in what to do with this airwell.
When on Aircond, Aircond cool air will escape. If Lizard and spiders move in, it will be hard to clean.
Built a room/attic is expensive. Should I just close it with plaster ceiling ? Any better suggestion?

Keep it for better ventilation.

Cold air goes down while hot air goes up.
Your aircon efficiency *may* be affected slightly but you won't turn it on 24/7, correct?
Fresh air outweight this...

Just install the mosquito nett outside to prevent the insects.

This Air well provide the natural light middle of the house
If we build this closed system mezzanine it will block all the natural light right?
