Street art gallery
More and more often, on the walls of the austere buildings of Vienna, one can see bright, daring artistic painting, striking in its originality and uniqueness. The art of street art got its development from graffiti, but acquired a large scale: the "canvases" of street artists occupy huge walls, facades, sections of roads and sidewalks. Street art works reflect various plots, carry deep meaning and ideas, so this art has become very popular.
The Vienna Street Art Gallery (2006) is a logical continuation of the development of this new type of artistic painting, where innovative artists have the opportunity to show everyone their brilliant work.

Hundertwasser House
A unique residential building with amazing facades was built by the famous architect Friedrich Nundertwasser, who can be considered an Austrian Gaudi - their architectural creations are so similar in originality and expressiveness of execution. A striking example of the fantasy thinking of a genius from architecture is the Nundertwasser House in Vienna. It cannot be overlooked: the kaleidoscopically colored facades, the absence of the usual right angles and lines in the architecture of the building make this house an unrealistically beautiful fairytale object.
Such an avant-garde style was the fruit of a long creative quest of an extraordinary creator who studied impressionism, transautomatism and founded his own academy of creativity - the Pintorarium. Considering that city dwellers are bored of living in standard multi-storey boxes, he created a "cheerful" colorful house with different levels of roofing and windows. The facades of each apartment are painted in different colors; round balconies with delicate railings are entwined with ivy and curly flowers. In some places, trees grow directly from windows or on the roof - a synthesis of urbanism and wildlife, which, according to the architect, is so lacking in the city.
In front of the entrance there is an unusual-looking fountain of intricate design, laid out around the wave-like mosaic paving stones. 50 apartments are inhabited by tenants, of which not all can withstand the pilgrimage of tourists who come in droves to the famous architectural wonder. You can only consider it from the outside, you cannot go inside.
