    @mattblaze@federate.social How is it I’ve never seen or known about this place? I’ve been living in London for a quarter of a century and have gone to South Kensington tube station hundreds and hundreds of times over the course of those 25 years.

      London’s “Thin House” looks as if it belongs in a Potemkin village or as a background facade on a Hollywood studio lot, but it’s something of a Tardis, larger on the inside than it appears on the outside. Created to make way for the tracks of the Metropolitan Railway (now the District and Circle lines) behind it, its triangular footprint gives it the illusion of being little more than a shallow rectangle when viewed from the street.

        Wow! And I thought this house was already extremely narrow.

        (On the ground floor, it hosts probably one of the most compact toy stores possible.)

        @mattblaze@federate.social
        Came here to ask if it was larger on the inside. 😆

      @me@social.taupehat.com No, just highly optimized real estate utilization in an expensive city. (The rear of the house is an open trench for the Underground at a diagonal.)
