Tin House
Located in London, one of the most densely populated cities in the world, the Tin House has been designed by Henning Stummel Architects to create a secluded and tranquil living environment. Occupying a previously empty site, the building comprises six metal-clad ‘pods’ which each accommodate one function. Services, such as toilets and stairs, are housed in the corridors that link the pods.
