In Rotterdam, in The Netherlands there sit a cluster of houses that are built on a narrow scale, and some allow traffic between them.
It's something you'll have to watch to really get the real understanding of.
I don't think I could live there, could you?
Tilted at a 55 degree angle Rotterdam’s “Cube Houses” (Kubuswoningen) seem to defy gravity. Dreamed up by architect Piet Blum in the 1970s to help the city t...

They showed the road for a second but then a section where there was open walkway space. I am not quite sure where / how the roadway runs through it but the owners said that it does? 
Yes, I would endlessly be banging my head on things. I am horribly clumsy.

Cool, yeah, but I couldn't stand to live in it...
If there weren't so many weird angled walls and I didn't have to look out the window...

@teamfreak16 What about noise pollution? IF there really is a major road below the houses, I don't think I could stand hearing traffic all the time.

@ScribbledAdNauseum - I could probably adapt. It might be fun. For awhile, anyway.

Yes, her son (I am assuming) seemed very content with it but I have a bony bum and it simply wouldn't do for me!

I could live in it, provided there were no windows! Looking at it makes me feel queasy. It would be quirky to live in. :)

I don't think I could look out the windows, that's for sure. I like the idea of narrow spaces but many floors, and I know that the windows help give the illusion that the place is bigger.
Despite the amenities provided. I would not live in it.@ScribbledAdNauseum (104632)

So a holiday / vacation home? Hmm that might be interesting for tourists.

Yes, it is a bit confusing... I am a bit claustrophobic but only when in elevators. I can't think of a time I've experienced it otherwise.
