The choice of the name “Artgender” derives from the consideration for which the brand that identifies a particular company that operates in the sectors of event planning, publishing and communication has never been used; for us art is a real type of human being, that is, who is deeper. Does not exclude anyone but renames a category, composed of very different people within… elsewhere I think, origin and direction; but, united by a single factor: the artistic one. Anyone can be or feel like an artist as long as he is concerned with producing or simply approaching any form of expression. Our identity is necessary, in things, in people, in words, in ways… that teaching contributes to formation ‘individual evolution.

The cube houses

The cube houses

In 1977 the Dutch architect Piet Blom designed in Rotterdam a set of very clever houses known around the world as “The cube houses”
🎲
Each house has the shape of a tree with a hexagon-shaped trunk and with the main structure tilted 45-degree on their side. All together they represent an abstract #forest
🌳
The purpose of this innovative #design was not merely artistic, as Blom wanted to optimize them to make the most of the available #space allowing a better distribution of the rooms inside.
The 38 houses are one of the most famous attractions in #Rotterdam but, if you are visiting #Netherlands you should also check out Helmond, the city where Blom constructed his first 18 experimental #cubic houses
·
In 2009 the two larger houses, known as “Super cubes” were converted into a #hostel and tourists can experience living inside a #Cube !
If you live across the ocean, you should probably visit Toronto where in 1996 the #architect Ben Kutner built 3 individual cubic houses still spectacular!
