It is a 39.5 meter high, bowl-shaped building that is covered with reflective plates, so that a more or less contiguous, reduced mirror image of the environment can be seen, whereby one can look over the surrounding buildings.

The cube houses in Rotterdam are 38 cube-shaped stilt houses and 13 business cubes at the Blaak near the Oude Haven. They were built between 1982 and 1984, after a first presentation of the plans in 1978. The design by Piet Blom is a variant of the Helmond cube house in a slightly larger grid. The cube houses are built in the shape of a tilted cube on a pole, and are also known as stilt houses or tree houses.

In addition to the Willemsbrug, the Erasmus Bridge is the second bridge across the Nieuwe Maas in the center of Rotterdam. It is named after the Dutch priest and humanist Erasmus. The bridge connects the Kop van Zuid district with the center on the north side of the river. The 284 meter long cable-stayed bridge has a 139 meter high bent asymmetric steel pylon. This is why the bridge is nicknamed "The Swan".
