Rotterdam - Show-Cube

(Local Name: Kijk-Kubus) From Churchillplein two wide streets go off - the Blaak on the left and the Westblaak on the right. The Blaak joins the Overblaak, in which is a striking example of modern architecture by Piet Blom, the Kijk-Kubus, a block of houses with cube-shaped upper stories. Some of the houses, which are fully furnished, can be visited. The scheme is explained and illustrated by photographs, videos and other illustrative material.

Near the Grote Kerk are the "pile dwellings", a modern housing project.

Here visitors can experience the sensation of living in one of Piet Blom's cube houses.
