Cube Houses

Kubuswoningen

Tilted cube houses designed by architect Piet Blom, Rotterdam's most recognizable building.

The Cube Houses were completed in 1984. Thirty-eight yellow cubes, each tilted at 45 degrees, rest on hexagonal pillars, forming an 'abstract forest.' The show home is open to visitors, so you can experience life inside the slanted rooms for about €4. Right beside Blaak Station and the Market Hall, the pencil-shaped Blaak Tower is also a Blom design.
