It does look to be a lot larger inside than it appears from the outside.

- 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.
