Inside the world's tiniest home no wider than a car that's sandwiched between buildings
The Keret House, sandwiched between two existing buildings, is a vertical testament to thinking outside the box.
'The world's narrowest house' opens up in Warsaw, Poland
In a world obsessed with sprawling mansions and towering skyscrapers, one pint-sized contender in Poland is proving that size really doesn't matter.
The Keret House, officially recognised as the smallest house in the world, continues to stand tall—well, as tall as a house measuring 36 inches at its widest point.
Nestled in the heart of Warsaw, this architectural marvel is more than just a compact living space; it's a testament to human ingenuity and a quirky twist on urban living.
Residents and visitors alike have marvelled at the ingenious design that somehow manages to pack in a kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom into a space barely larger than a king-sized bed.
Architect Jakub Szczęsny, the mastermind behind this micro masterpiece, explained the inspiration behind the project: "I wanted to challenge the conventional idea of what a house should be.
"Why not live vertically when there's not enough horizontal space?" And challenge he did.
Despite its diminutive size, the Keret House has become a cultural hotspot in Warsaw, attracting artists, writers, and even the occasional contortionist eager to experience life in a place that makes Tokyo's capsule hotels look downright spacious.
