About the artwork

The Cube Houses in Rotterdam are 38 cubic pile houses and 13 company cubes at Blaak near the Oude Haven. They were built between 1982 and 1984, following an initial presentation of the plans in 1978.

The basic idea, building on columns so that the space under the buildings could remain public, came from Le Corbusier.
