NeXT Cube front side. This is a NeXTdimension (PAL) Turbo Cube. It has 64MB RAM and a 2GB Fast SCSI disk running OPENSTEP 4.2.
Just started the last semester, while taking the exams of the previous one - not enough time for Origami! only here and there I can grab a sheet of paper and work out something new.
6 units, Duo Kami paper.
Thanks to my co-folder, Sasha.
My life in the cube farm. What do you not see is that behind me is a floor-to-ceiling window with a blind on it. Yay natural light! I keep the blind about half-lowered so as not to create glare on my monitor, but it's a fantastic amenity to have.
The cube itself is on a corner of the floor, so it's fairly isolated. I have neighbors in front and to the right. The front neighbor spends a lot of time on the phone, but that's what noise-reducing headphones are for. The neighbor to the right is my boss, who is very quiet and works from home two days a week anyway.
To the left is a wall. It's the conference room wall, so every once in a while that gets noisy, but it also allows me to hang my whiteboard, which, after the computer, is probably my most important tool. There is also a spare chair against that wall, since I do regularly have people in my cube for collaborative purposes.
Also not shown is the rest of the cube itself. On the shelf are copies of the organization's publications, which I actually do read just to learn a bit more about our members and what they do. The desk part is pretty bare; since I work with digital media, I rarely have occasion to collect paper in my cube, and that's often the first thing new employees comment on when they come see me.
Droid Embryo Cube.

Cube houses in Rotterdam. I had to tweak this picture because of the terrential rain in Rotterdam when we were there.

"Cube houses (Dutch: Kubuswoningen) are a set of innovative houses built in Rotterdam and Helmond in the Netherlands, designed by architect Piet Blom and based on the concept of "living as an urban roof": high density housing with sufficient space on the ground level. Blom tilted the cube of a conventional house 45 degrees, and rested it upon a hexagon-shaped pylon. His design represents a village within a city, where each house represents a tree, and all the houses together, a forest.
The houses in Rotterdam were designed in 1977 in a plan of 55, of which 39 were built.
The houses in Rotterdam are located on Overblaak Street, right above the Blaak Subway Station. There are 38 small cubes and two so called 'super-cubes', all attached to each other.
As residents are disturbed so often by curious passers-by, one owner decided to open a "show cube", which is furnished as a normal house, and is making a living out of offering tours to visitors.
The walls and windows are angled at 54.7 degrees. The total area of the apartment is around 100 square meters, but around a quarter of the space is unusable because of the walls that are under the angled ceilings.
In 2006, a museum of chess pieces was opened under the houses.
In 2009, the larger cubes were converted by Personal Architecture into a hostel run by Dutch hostel chain Stayokay."

The Cube has 6 different colourful mosaics on its sides and combines a lot of the things that I love: Lego (obviously), geometric shapes, colours, mosaics and patterns and finally some logic and maths.

It was a very fun and satisfying build and it makes me so happy just looking at it.

Been a while since I last posted.
Cube Chain folded by me from 48 individual pieces of paper.
Last few months been very busy with architecture school. Since then I’ve made some real progress on the ryujin 3.5, have designed a few of my own models. Most have been simple, one is intermediate. Very cool stuff.
