Cool Cube is a cube-shaped house located in the centre of Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Designed by jvantspijker for a modern family, the house has a total floor area of 277m² (2,982ft²).
The design of the house answers a number of the client’s specific spatial demands: a gentle entrance sequence between public private space, a living room slightly raised above street level, kitchen and dining connected to the garden, a semi-private music room and a roof terrace.
These five ingredients have been interweaved resulting in a playful composition organized around the spacious central staircase. Large windows across the corners of the house catch light from various angles and reinforce the spatial richness of the interior.
