So i am planning on making a new indoor enclosure for PeanutButter and Jelly. I would prefer to make them a top quality living area once i get a plan sorted but below are some pics of the current setup i have. (6ftx3.5ft) and sitting on the ground.

I'm keen to make an elevated area for putting their food on as going up and down and leaning over the enclosure can be tricky at times also it will be good climbing exercise for them too.

Im just after extra ideas following a similar footprint again. Could potentially make it a bunkbed design too. What are everyones thoughts?

I was thinking something like this... or is the general consensus a vivarium is a no no... im in the UK and would probably have a vent on every side if i were to make one like this...

Great enclosure! But they need humidity. Are you living in a place that has a lot of humidity? I closed my enclosure so the enclosure reach the level of humidity i want.
Please post the setup once you finished the new one, my enclosure so plain, yours looks like it can be quiet an adventure for the tort.

I have no advice for an indoor enclosure but love that your tortoises are named Peanut Butter and Jelly!

Thanks and yerp you dont get much more humid than down in this valley in the UK. Even indoors their humidity reading are still high. I was just thinking with a vivarium style enclosure would help me get a more constant temperature. As it fluctuates quite a lot.
