Architectural Renderings House-Fascinating KunstHaus Wien Museum with Green Living Walls



The KunstHaus Wien Museum in Vienna, Austria is unique building with living tree sprouting between the windows. The odd museum, which houses the work of artist and architect Friedensreich Hundertwasser, is characterized by its bumpy, mosaic-lined facade, irregular floor, green roof and Sprout tree that grow right out of it.


Friedensreich Hundertwasser said that Some people might say houses consist of walls. But i wiil say houses consist of windows. The repetition of identical windows next to each other and above each other as in a grid system is a characteristic of concentration camps.


When Friedensreich Hundertwasser design the KunstHaus Wien Museum, he made sure he practiced what he preached each window is a different color, size, shape or type, making the facade of the building a mismatched design that somehow seems to work.


The trees that grow right out of KunstHaus Wien are a delight to visitors, but they also play an important role is cleaning the air around the museum and providing shade.


It’s lovingly called “tree tenants” by the visitor, they are considered a living part of the building not just an mere ornament, and some of the plants sprawl over the walls of the facade, creating a green wall.


The museum also has a green roof which has full size trees growing right on it. So if by any chance you visit Vienna, The KunstHaus Wien Museum is the place that you must pay a visit first.
