Legacy Friedensreich Hundertwasser (Friedensreich Hundertwasser) Bashny.Net

This Austrian artist and architect is dead for almost thirteen years. However, he left behind an impressive legacy of paintings and unusual buildings. It is the architecture we suggest you to pay attention.

His architectural concept he outlined several manifestos and implemented in a variety of projects.





His ideal home - a safe cozy burrow, which covers the grass on top, but with a variety of hole-eye windows.









In New Zealand, he built a house where the roof turns into a hill on each side. It is growing grass, which sometimes come to nibble sheep. Hundertwasser believed that one can not live in the same houses-boxes: the people of this bad.





Each tenant has the right to lean out of his window and paint, or otherwise modify the wall around it, where the hands and brush enough (not to mention the interior of the house).



He led several projects on rehabilitation of former factories - dull boxes that it turns into a fairy-tale towers.



Like Gaudi, Hundertwasser widely used battered ceramic tile: mosaic made out of it, brighten up this dreary and flat surface.







He also is placed on the house of gold or blue domes, cupolas, breaking the monotony of the line of the roof, and equipped with niches for trees.
