Waldspirale, celestial work

In each corner of the world deserving beauties of the largest admirations exist, that leave us stunned with only the eye contact of their forms and dimensions, of their textures and of their colors –This time I do not speak of women, like they must have fallen in account, but of a great building that justifies the existence of the art with only look at by means of photos-. This beauty is found in Germany, in Darmstadt, specifically, whose responsibility is attributed to the painter, sculptor and Austrian architect Hundertasser. The name of this building? Waldspirale or The Forest Spiral.


The words can remain short to describe its fantastic characteristics, its completely unusual form that does something of allusion to the sketchs of the Hanging Gardens of Babylonia already nonexistent. It is poetry in height and dimensions, pure visionary art, that as part of a dream serves like a housing complex. When they say that some they live in the nueves perhaps they refer to the happy that occupy this spiral monument.

The Waldspirale, in coarse words, is composed percent five (105) apartments, a newsstand, coffee and bar, that are found in the highest part of the spiral, besides playgrounds for the smallest inhabitants, that is to say a perfectly habitable housing complex, with all the conditions for a welcoming stopover, as if was not sufficient with being in the bowels of an unique colossus in its characteristics, a Work of art by where look at itself it or, if is wanted, an extravagance of the best style.

Not the symmetry in the composition of the Waldspirale exists, all its windows are different and not an exactly said facade exists that the setting in simple definitions. This building offers us its beauty since any angle where look at him itself, giving different perspectives after each glance, even so be so familiarized with the structure as the neighbors that inhabit its interior.

It is of an unorthodox style, with domes, oblique lines, very enigmatic pastel colors, that do not give sign of a specific ideology of influence, but of the purest one trasgresión of any preconceived rule. Innovation at a hundred percent of a teacher that little wanted to know about borders to design an icon of the modern culture, of the culture of the future.

Twelve flats, in the strictest sense, that touches the sky with its indefinite spirit. Twelve flats that are crowned with a golden dome, that symbolizes it more utopian of ours imaginary. When it is seen Waldspirale is believed that all is possible.
