They are pretty much a fixture on every brochure and guide on Rotterdam, and rightly so, since they are pretty unique when it comes to housing and they are so cool I cannot avoid to mention them.
A resident even transformed his in a museum so visitors can catch a glimpse on how it feels like to live at 45 degrees.
Although be warned, when you first enter you might feel like you have been
spending too much time in that coffeeshop on the corner...

UPDATE 7/7/14: yesterday we finally visited the Kubus Museum. For just 3 euro you can see first hand how it feels like to live in a very unconventional building. Nook and crannies, strangely shaped seats and a wonderful, pyramidal, under roof attic.
