Hundertwasserhaus, Expressionist residential building in Landstrasse district, Vienna, Austria
The Hundertwasserhaus features irregular surfaces, multicolored facades, uneven floors, and windows of different sizes integrated with vegetation throughout the structure.
Built between 1983 and 1985, architects Josef Krawina and Peter Pelikan collaborated with artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser to create this residential complex of 53 apartments.
The building represents a shift in architectural design by incorporating nature into urban living spaces through integrated trees growing from windows and vegetation-covered terraces.
While the residential section remains private, visitors can explore the adjacent Hundertwasser Village, which contains shops and a cafe displaying the same architectural style.
Each resident maintains the right to personalize the facade around their windows, creating an ever-evolving exterior appearance that changes with successive occupants.
