How Many Rubik's Cubes Would You Need To Build a House?

By Andrew Liszewski on at

Looking for an easier way to change the color of your home without breaking out the paint brushes and rollers? Build it from Rubik's Cubes, instead of traditional materials like wood, steel, or drywall.

According to this calculator, you'll need about 430,000 Rubik's Cubes for a typical 2,000 square foot, two-story abode. And to solve it into a unified colour of your choice—red, blue, orange, green, yellow, or white—a master speedcuber would need just over 27 days of non-stop cube spinning—or 73 years of sticker peeling.
