A building from the realm of fairy tales

The luxury building was designed by architects Szczepan Szotyński, Malgorzata Kruzsko-Szotyńska and Leszek Zaleski Jr., but its roots can be traced to an entirely different field. The inspiration for its creation came from the fairy tale-like drawings of the Polish illustrator Jan Marcin Szancer and the Swedish artist Per Dahlberg.

An architectural jewel

The building's design breathes a spirit of surrealism with its stunning geometry and bizarre curves. The unique building is decorated with warped walls, windows with luxurious sandstone frames and curved architectural stained glass windows with a concave roof.

Inside the Crooked House there are shops, restaurants and a games room, as well as private radio stations Radio RMF FM and RMF MAXXX.
