Eleventh House

Close up of the South facade.

There they are, the blocks, like hollow monoliths on the Laan van Bol'es, like dark trunks in between the green. They reveal nothing on the outside. Everything takes place on the inside. And yet, in each block there is one house that always escapes the direction of introversion. It is the eleventh house. The house with two front doors. The house with an isolated outside storeroom. The house with an average back garden that has become a patio. The house with the most common floor plan compared to the other ten. Secret number three.
