Based on the one unit that was open to the public, each cube was broken into 3 cramped levels: bottom level had the kitchen, a half-bath and living room; 2nd level had a cramped full bath and space for 2 bedrooms and some sitting space; top level was an attic/bedroom.
An assortment of Half Cubes folded from various papers. The centre one is from 7.5cm square Harmony and the red one is from 12cm square Flint paper. The rest are from 15cm squares.

These cubes were on display at the Architectural Digest Home Design Show.
They are made by ceramicist Kaiser Suidan ( www.nextstepstudio.com/kaiser-suidan/ ) and sell for $750 a piece.
Personally, if I had $750 to spend, I'd spend it on a camera, but anyone buying a set of cubes could probably buy me a camera without putting much of a dent in their finances.
A rubik's cube with different textures on each side so that it can be solved blindfolded. Customly made by me. Anyone is free to copy it. The textures are
Green: Rough Side of Sponge
Blue: Light Blue Cubesmith Tiles
Yellow: Sponge
White: Low Grade Sandpaper
Red: Fur Fabric
Orange: Legos
It has the same colour sceme as the original rubik's cube.
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.

The grey doesn't match: wrong colour. So I made another one for a more harmonic series, see my stream....

The Rubik's Cube is a 3-D mechanical puzzle invented in 1974 by Hungarian sculptor and professor of architecture Erno Rubik. Originally called the "Magic Cube", the puzzle was licensed by Rubik to be sold by Ideal Toys in 1980 and won the German Game of the Year special award for Best Puzzle that year. As of January 2009, 350 million cubes have sold worldwide making it the world's top-selling puzzle game. It is widely considered to be the world's best-selling toy. In a classic Rubik's Cube, each of the six faces is covered by 9 stickers, among six solid colours (traditionally white, red, blue, orange, green, and yellow).[9] A pivot mechanism enables each face to turn independently, thus mixing up the colours. For the puzzle to be solved, each face must be a solid colour. Similar puzzles have now been produced with various numbers of stickers, not all of them by Rubik. The original 3×3×3 version celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary in 2005. A standard Rubik's cube measures 5.7 cm (approximately 2¼ inches) on each side. The puzzle consists of twenty-six unique miniature cubes, also called "cubies" or "cubelets". However, the centre cube of each of the six faces is merely a single square façade; all six are affixed to the core mechanisms. These provide structure for the other pieces to fit into and rotate around. So there are twenty-one pieces: a single core piece consisting of three intersecting axes holding the six centre squares in place but letting them rotate, and twenty smaller plastic pieces which fit into it to form the assembled puzzle. The Cube can be taken apart without much difficulty, typically by rotating the top layer by 45° and then prying one of its edge cubes away from the other two layers. Consequently it is a simple process to "solve" a Cube by taking it apart and reassembling it in a solved state. There are twelve edge pieces which show two coloured sides each, and eight corner pieces which show three colours. Each piece shows a unique colour combination, but not all combinations are present (for example, if red and orange are on opposite sides of the solved Cube, there is no edge piece with both red and orange sides). The location of these cubes relative to one another can be altered by twisting an outer third of the Cube 90°, 180° or 270°, but the location of the coloured sides relative to one another in the completed state of the puzzle cannot be altered: it is fixed by the relative positions of the centre squares and the distribution of colour. However, Cubes with alternative colour arrangements also exist; for example, they might have the yellow face opposite the green, and the blue face opposite the white (with red and orange opposite faces remaining unchanged). Erno Rubik invented the Cube in the spring of 1974 in his home town of Budapest, Hungary. He wanted a working model to help explain three-dimensional geometry and ended up creating the world?s best selling toy.

The Cube is an iconic 25 storey mixed-use development in the centre of Birmingham, England. Designed by Ken Shuttleworth of Make Architects, it contains 135 flats, 111,500 square feet (10,359 m2) of offices, shops, a hotel and a 'skyline' restaurant. It is the final phase of The Mailbox development.

...drunken beans are delicious. Most recipes call for pork, but this one is vegetarian. #fuckyeahbeer
Borracho ("drunken") beans
1-1/4 c. light red beans, picked over, soaked, and drained
6 c. water
1 Knorr vegetable bouillon cube
1 small white onion, chopped

1 tsp. dried oregano
1/2 tsp. paprika
1/2-1 tsp. crushed chile pequin

1 14 oz. can diced tomatoes or 2 diced tomatoes
In a pot, combine soaked beans, onions, garlic, and bouillon. Add cumin, oregano, paprika, chile pequin, and garlic powder. Add beer and tomatoes.
Simmer gently, partially covered, until beans are completely tender, a couple of hours, stirring occasionally.
Adjust seasonings -- use salt & pepper and ground cumin, as needed -- and serve warm with corn tortillas, as a side dish (these are freakin' awesome served for breakfast with migas), or over rice as a main dish.
Garnish options include onion, tomato, olives, cilantro, and shredded cheeses.

diced tomatoes, black olives, spring onions as desired for garnish
Heat the beans in a small pot. Add water to thin if necessary. Add onions. Stir in most of the cheese until melted, reserving a bit to garnish with.

Case a cubo, di Piet Blom, accanto all'uscita Blaak Metro, Rotterdam, Olanda.
Cube houses designed by Piet Blom, next to the Blaak Metro station, Rotterdam, Holland.
These houses were built in the early 80's and belong to the Structuralism movement of which Piet Blom is a representative, along with Aldo van Eyck and Herman Hertzberger.
Blom tilted the cube of a conventional house 45°, and rested it upon a hexagon-shaped pylon. There are 38 small cubes and two so called 'super-cubes', all attached to each other.
As residents were 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 allowing tourists to visit it.
The Rotterdam houses contain three floors: ground floor entrance, first floor with a living room and open kitchen, second floor with two bedrooms and a bathroom and the top floor which is sometimes a small roof-garden. The walls and windows are angled at 54.7°. The total area of the apartment is approximately 100m², but about a quarter of the space is not usable because the walls are under the angled ceilings.
