Rent to Own.ph: Another skinny house in a tiny lot, more proof that any space can be livable.

Japanese firm Fujiwarramuro Architects' Nada House is a narrow and minimalist home sandwiched between two buildings in downtown Kobe. Squeezed onto a small 397 square-foot lot, the skinny three-story multi-family home builds up to make the most of its tiny urban footprint. To maximize the amount of natural light in the house, the architects created an innovative series of slatted openings to allow a column of light to pass through from the roof skylights to the first floor.
