This experimental, humanist and ecological collective home was designed in 1983 by the visionary Hundertwasser.

It was commissioned by the city of Vienna. This experimental, humanistic and ecological collective housing was designed in 1983 by the visionary Hundertwasser. On stage, colors, undulations, gilding in the style of this original artist who put Man and nature at the center of his research, not claiming any artistic quality, not seeking recognition from his peers nor from intellectual circles, resolutely offbeat, undeniably poetic and totally independent. There is nothing regular or symmetrical about the Hundertwasser building, but curves, vegetation, common spaces for conviviality, and nods to nature. It is a house of utopia, also called Hundertwasser Village, which continues to attract students and architects from around the world. The floor undulates, the colors burst, and right next to it, in the gallery also signed by Hundertwasser, the merchants of the temple sell plastic trinkets as souvenirs, postcards or T-shirts in the painter's colors, sandwiches...

This village is a realization in the image of Hundertwasser who explained: "It is large and small at the same time, structured and anarchic, able to encompass the Viennese style to better distance itself from it, we are welcomed by water, trees, color, life ... ". An amazing discovery that makes you want to go to the museum dedicated to Hundertwasser a few blocks away to learn more about this very surprising and admirable Viennese.

Pour changer de style !
Une découverte d'un autre style architectural qui fait penser au style de Gaudi. De la couleur, des formes et de la verdure : un plaisir pour mes yeux !

Un lieu à découvrir pour avoir une autre vision de Vienne. Cela fait penser aux modernistes catalans. Le petit centre juste en face avec ses boutiques de souvenirs et ses cafés est bien agréable.

L’extérieur est très atypique et fait penser à du Gaudi avec des couleurs et des formes ondulées. Le contraste est assez frappant avec les bâtiments aux alentours. Attention au sol pas droit !
Il y a une galerie centre commercial juste en face.

Totalement inattendu, il faut aller faire le détour, il y a 2 maisons à quelques rues d'intervalle. Si vous arrivez à trouver l'une vous avez des panneaux pour trouver l'autre.

Très original, coloré, ondulé ! Superbe à voir et très agréable de s'y promener.
Un détour à faire à Vienne si vous avez un peu de temps !
