Friedensreich Hundertwasser was a playful Austrian artist and architect who hated boring straight lines. He believed buildings should look like fairy tales, nature should grow on rooftops, and people should paint their own walls. [1, 2, 3]
No Straight Lines
- He thought straight lines were unnatural and boring.
- He loved wobbly, curvy, and dancing lines.
Trees as House Tenants

- He planted real forests on top of his roofs.
Window Rights

- He called this the "window right."
