Rotterdam, Netherlands - 30th June 2008
By: Lejow
Hello!
We had an exciting weekend!!
Yesterday we went to see the Centre of Rotterdam.
We went by Metro
When we arrived and got out, we saw the trainstation, and two trains where just arriving!
There we saw some marvolous buildings
We saw the Cubic houses.
Here is some info:
Kubuswoningen, or cube houses, are a set of innovative houses built in Rotterdam and Helmond in The Netherlands, designed by architect Piet Blom in 1984. The houses in Rotterdam are located on Overblaak Street, and beside the Blaak Subway Station. Blom tilted the cube of a conventional house 45 degrees, and rested it upon a hexagon-shaped pylon. There are 38 small cubes and two so called 'super-cubes', all attached to each other.
As residents are disturbed so often by curious passers-by, one owner decided to open a "show cube", which is furnished as a normal house, and is making a living out of offering tours to visitors.
The houses contain three floors:
ground floor entrance
first floor with living room and open kitchen
second floor with two bedrooms and bathroom
top floor which is sometimes used as a small garden
The walls and windows are angled at 54.7 degrees. The total area of the apartment is around 100 square meters, but around a quarter of the space is unusable because of the walls that are under the angled ceilings
Next to the cubes houses you will see another designed building by the Dutch architect Piet Blom (1934-1999). It is called the Blaaktower and has the shape of a pencil, that is why it is popular called 'The Pencil', Het Potlood
Yesterdayevening we watch the Final of the European Championship of Football.
a match between Spain and Germany (the Netherlands have made it to the quarter finals). And wooowww it was exciting!
They both played very good. But only one was the best.
Spain has won with 1-0
getting the medals
getting the cup
