Rotated house is an 18-cell strict still life consisting of two mutually stabilising houses. It is one of three ways in which two houses can be arranged to create a still life, and one of the two which have two separate islands.

Having the two constituent houses in a mirror-symmetric arrangement gives mirrored house, whereas connecting them diagonally to stabilise each other gives house bridge house.

Commonness

Main article: List of common still lifes

It is the 107th most common still life on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue, being less common than trans-bun and dove but more common than boat tie long boat. It is the 4th most common still life with 18 cells, being less common than loaf bridge eater-with-tail but more common than meta-dock and long bookend.

In C2_1 symmetry, it is the 31st most common object.

Glider synthesis

Rotated house can be very simply synthesised in four gliders via two colliding pi-heptominoes, which take two gliders each.
