Rem Koolhaas Houselife and La Maison en Petites Cubes

Movie recommendations.

I saw these movies recently at my school, in a movie association called DAFF, where I am part of the “board”. It just means that I sometimes get to decide which movies to be showed. We show architecture related movies two times a month.

Houselifde follows the staff of the house, which Rem Koolhaas built near Bordeaux in France. You follow a very charming femme de ménage, a gartner, window cleaners and others who struggle with some of the details and curiosities of the house. A very funny and charming movie:)

We also showed La Maison en Petites Cubes, which won an Oscar (2008) for best animated short film. You can see the entire movie (12:06 minutes) here:
