Suzanne Labarre tours it:

The house (officially an “art installation,” because it doesn’t meet Polish building code) is slated to fill a crack between a pair of buildings in Warsaw’s Wola district. When construction’s finished in December, it’ll be the thinnest house in Warsaw and possibly the whole world…. If everything goes according to plan, Szczęsny will manage to squeeze in designated rooms for sleeping, eating, and working. The place will have off-grid plumbing inspired by boat sewage technology and electricity lifted from a neighbor. To save space, the entry stairs will fold up at the press of a button and become part of the first floor.
