Measuring just seven-and-a-half feet wide, this London home designed by architecture collaborative Alma-nac, is aptly named the Slim House. Completed in 2012, the project is a renovation and expansion of an early, 19th-century example of urban infill. The architects kept the facade intact, choosing to instead dramatically modernize it rear-facing side. Photo 3 of 6 in Small City Homes, All Under 1,300 Square Feet by Aileen Kwun
