Cube Houses are curious from a architecture point of view. The entrance to the house is by way of a narrow staircase in the trunk or pole of the house. The living quarters are in the cube itself. The cube seems to be tilted and placed on the pole resting on one points. There are three floors, shaped in a triangle. The walls are slanting. Downstairs is the living room and kitchen and a study. On the second floor bedroom and bathroom and the top floor, shaped as a pyramid, another room, with splendid views, the best place of the whole house. The downstairs rooms are fairly dark, the windows are small and there are not many. There are 38 of these houses and their selling price is 200.000 euros. Kijk-Kubus number 70 is open to the public.
