House of Cubes (2026) Photograph by Aydan Aliyeva

34 x 46 x 2.5cm (framed) / 24 x 36cm (actual image size)

£216.79

This photograph was taken in Rotterdam, capturing the iconic yellow cube houses through a geometric and structured composition.

The image focuses on the bold architectural forms of the Cube Houses, emphasizing their sharp angles, tilted structures, and rhythmic repetition. Rather than presenting the buildings as a typical cityscape, the photograph isolates their geometric character, transforming them into abstract visual forms within the urban environment.

The strong yellow tones contrast with the surrounding lines and shadows, creating a visually striking balance between order and distortion. The perspective highlights how architecture can shift between functionality and sculptural expression depending on how it is viewed.

This work explores the boundary between photography and abstraction—where a real place becomes a study of shape, color, and structure.

Materials used:

Archival pigment print (giclée) on fine art paper
