The Cube Houses (Kubuswoningen) in Rotterdam, Netherlands, are a remarkable architectural landmark designed by the visionary Dutch architect Piet Blom. Built between 1982 and 1984, these innovative houses are located on Overblaak Street, just a short walk from Rotterdam’s bustling city center and the famous Markthal. Blom’s concept was to create urban housing in the form of tilted cubes, each house rotated 45 degrees to resemble trees in an abstract forest. The unique design features a hexagonal base, with each cube resting on a concrete pillar, offering both an artistic and practical approach to dense city living.

Over the decades, the Cube Houses have attracted visitors from around the world due to their futuristic design and their role as a symbol of Rotterdam’s post-war architectural revival. You can even explore the interior of one of the homes, known as the "Show Cube," to get a firsthand look at how the unconventional angles affect living spaces. Whether you're an architecture enthusiast or just curious about innovative design, the Cube Houses are a must-see attraction in Rotterdam.
