This is the sort of thing I am trying to recreate, but it's difficult in 6
wide:

Does it pass for  one? The difficulty is the corridor vestibule -- if I
could somehow use thin wall pieces or some snot technique with plates, I'm
sure it would be a lot better.

Has anyone else attempted anything similar?

Very nice on the real-brick build.  Notibly nice alternative now knowing
that you don't have any 1x2x2 yellow windows.

Here's an idea pending you might buy some yellow windows and lots of 1x4x1.3
1/4-curve-top bricks.  It sure is easy to build the impossible in LDraw.
Anyway, maybe something in this design might be of interest:
