Designed by Piet Blom in 1984, the cube houses are one of the most famous buildings in the world. The 32 houses are tilted 45 degrees, contain 3 floors and have a total area of 100 square metres. The concept behind these cubes is that Piet Blom tries to create a forest with each cube representing a tree, therefore the whole village becomes a forest. If you wish to see how they look on the inside you can visit one of the houses which is open for visitors. It's also possible to rent an apartment for your holiday in a cube house.
