One of the world's narrowest houses (only 152cm / 59.8in wide) will be built in Poland.

How do you get in that house and where is the wide screen tv 

It looks like it has retracting stairs. The green pillow is at the far end of the "floor" that is the stairs.

I decided to try to find more on this beast.

Initially presented in 2009 as a rather eccentric architect's idea, one of the world's narrowest houses will be built in Warsaw, Poland. Referred to as an "impossible house" by its designer Jakub Szczesny of Centrala design studio, the house will be 152 cm (60 in) across in its widest spot on the outside. It's located in the center of Warsaw in a small slot between two buildings, and will be officially defined as an art installation, as it does not meet any legal standards of construction in Poland.

And it turns out, that's not a TV, it's a window.

Interesting challenge now knowing the dimension measurements, although this design is not the most efficient use of space in these constraints.  You can reduce this to a simple packing problem http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing_problem. I doubt it's been through any structural analysis.

Is that a shower head on the wall in front of the toilet? I was thinking to myself, "Yeah, but where's the shower?", and then I noticed that. That's quite convenient. Most people piss in the shower anyway, at least now you can do it in a toilet in the shower and pretend you're refined enough that you wouldn't technically piss in the shower like a fucking peasant.
