The Upside-Down House

Yesterday evening I posted a few pics of some very unusual houses. As luck would have it, a reader of BNOTP had actually toured one of these amazing homes in person. Magda, has a lovely blog where she shares her wonderful talent for sewing and creating and she generously shared a few of her pics from her visit to the upside down house. Thanks Magda for sharing these in-person pics!


As I mentioned yesterday, this home is in Syzmbark, Poland, and was actually built this way intentionally! A man by the name of Daniel Czapiewski, a Polish philanthropist and designer, built this "upside down house" as a social commentary on Poland’s former Communist era. The following photos were taken by Magda when she toured this "unusual" house.







Now we know where the chimney is. ;)




Here's an interior shot. The furniture was even upside down...or maybe it's right side up and we're upside down. ;) Magda said she couldn't stay inside for too long because she felt as if she was walking on the ceiling. I think this place would definitely give you vertigo.




Magda, thanks again for sharing your pics!



See you this evening for Tablescape Thursday!
