	Archive: Reports: Hundertwasser Haus, Vienna
		Viennese artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser (1928 - 2000) was an environmentalist and an outspoken opponent of mass-produced or poorly designed architecture which he felt constrained the creativity of those forced to live within it.
		He came up with the Hundertwasser Haus, one of the first of many buildings he was commissioned to build or redesign.
		The building caters for the individuality of those living there: each door and its door furniture is different, the windows are all shapes and sizes, the floors are not level, and tenants are permitted to alter their apartments both inside and out so that the exterior walls are a patchwork of colour, mosaics and decoration.
