The giant's house

Being above average tall is difficult as doorways and signs become easier to hit your head against. This gets much worse when you have giantism. 

Rigardus Rijnhout, also known as the Rotterdam Giant(link to reus van Rotterdam place) lived in the early to mid 20th century and is known as the second tallest Dutchman in history. Towering at a staggering 2.37 meters, he needed to customize his clothes, shoes, and bycicle given that nothing was available for his size. However, not many people realize that he also needed to customize his furniture and home to fit in it at all. 

He lived close to where his statue stands today, in a old house with a high ceiling that is now part of a Chinese supermarket. Not much of it remains, except for the front door which is unusually tall. This door was custom made for Rigardus so that he did not have to bend over too much when going in and out of his house.
