Friendensreich Hundertwasser’s (Vienna, 1928 - 2000) style as an architect was heavily influenced by Antoni Gaudi and some of the Jugendstil architects. His inclusion of irregular, almost accidental forms grew out of his antipathy to what he saw as the severity and austerity in modern architecture. Over the course of his career he developed revolutionary ecological stands with regard to architecture which earned him the nickname “Architecture-Healer.”
