Claustrophobic much? For the city code violations this tiny structure presented, the city zoned this as an art instillation. This petite Polish Structure, jammed into a gap and sandwiched between two buildings, is 4 feet at its widest point. Located in Warsaw, Poland the house is a dwelling spot for Israeli writer Etgar Keret.

Designed by architect Jakub Szczęsny of Centrala, it takes up about 150 square feet of once-unused space, filling the gap between a post-war co-op building and a prewar ex-Jewish tenement with a small kitchen, dining area, a small bathroom — about the same size as an airplane bathroom, bedroom and desk.
Everything had to be kept to the essentials. The formation is a steel cage positioned on two tunnel-like foundations.

The bedroom
Crazy narrow
Nearly impossible to notice what it is when walking by
