The singled room building is completely made of 1 way mirrors(as in one side you can see through it, one side you can see your reflection), walls, ceiling and floor. The reflection side is on the outside, and the see through side is on your side(you are inside the room.) So this singled room building is outside on a bright sunny day. So, can you see inside the room, or is it pitch black except where you look through the glass? I would like to actually do that one day.
The question is-- Would you be able see while in the room, and what would you see?

First off, Building 7 contained a power plant. That means there were big open areas inside so flames could move quickly. It also means that there was a lot of diesel fuel stored in the building. Diesel fuel is not all that much different than jet fuel. Both burn at 550 degrees F. Secondly, steel does not have to melt to lose its strength. Everyone seems to want to talk about the steel melting. It did not. But if you heat steel, it loses its temper and thus much of its strength. As an example, you can take a fairly large piece of steel rod and start bending it back and forth. When you first start, it is pretty hard to do, but as you keep doing it, you will find that you can bend it just a little bit more each time. At the same time, at the point where you are bending it, it gets warm. Keep it up and pretty soon you can break that rod right in half. Thirdly, many modern structures are made with weak links. Look at the bridge up in Minneapolis, MN that suddenly collapsed. One connector plate broke and when that went, the entire bridge fell down. Or the suspended bridges at the hotel in Kansas City. One weld joint gave and as a result, all the other weld joints gave way and both of the bridges fell, killing hundreds. Many modern buildings are like that also, built ONE FLOOR AT A TIME. Each floor has to support its own weight plus the weight of the floors above. If floor can not support itself, it goes and so does everything above it. Lastly, so you found a video of one building that did not fall down in a fire. According to the Architectural Engineers at the website below, the whole conspiracy thing is stupid.

Good question.
I don't have the physics here to back me up, but I doubt the mirrors could be 100% reflective. Some light would certainly be admitted. How much? I'm not sure. You'd therefore be able to see around the floor etc of the room.
You could certainly see anything outside the room normally.

I'd still be able to see that pimple on the end of my nose, unfortunately.
