Bolwoningen is a Dutch community in Den Bosch, Netherlands. It consists of 50 spherical houses grouped together with winding paths between them. The community was built in 1984 by artist and sculptor Dries Kreijkamp with a grant from the government to build experimental housing.
Each Bolwoning (literally ‘bulb house’, or ‘ball house’) is constructed with reinforced concrete and fiberglass. Each house has three main levels, with storage in bottom. The top space features unique round windows that offer panoramic views. The houses have been and continue to be occupied since the community was first constructed.

Hello, we’re all very happy to be here tonight. First of all, I’d like to introduce my boys. This is, uh, Chucko, and this is Buster, and this is Pete, I’m David Lynch, and this is Bob, and this is Dan, and we just wanted to get together and thank all of the people that have supported Eraserhead through the years, and particularly thank the Nuart Theatre for its support - the Nuart was one of the first theatres to ever show Eraserhead. Also, um, the boys wanted me to wish you, a-ah, peace and happiness, and, um, these guys aren’t just a bunch of goofballs, they know that there’s plenty of suffering in the world, and they, ah, spent many years with little iron hooks in their backs up on, uh, Sunset Boulevard, and, ah, but they tell me that there’s this all-pervading happiness underneath everything, and the more time I spend with them the more I believe it. And, so, we wish you peace and happiness, and long live Eraserhead. Thanks a million.
