Someone sure likes Look and painted a house like it. Taken on Great Highway in San Francisco.

He may also be a fan of Mondrian....

Still, I like it... don't let the man tell you how to paint your house!

de stijl was the coolest style ever, J.J.P. Oud was super cool too.

Hundertwasser abhorred straight lines.
"An uneven floor is a divine melody to the feet." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hundertwasserhaus)
As with Gaudi, if he'd designed an entire city, you'd feel seasick all the time.

But I will say, this is the coolest public housing project anywhere:
"Erbaut von der Stadt Wien . . ."

Hundertwasser's architecture was always very interesting and because of his love of 'unevenness' not always the most liveable.
He was a state treasure in Austria.
