Hundertwasser's Incinerator Works, Vienna



I was struck by the steampunk whimsy of this incinerator works in Vienna, designed by architect and artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser.

Most of his other work isn't very steampunk, but I liked the brass pipe, the swirling mural, and the minaret on top.

(thanks to my sister for pointing out Hundertwasser's work.)

    This is truly a great work of art by Hurdertwasser. I love the swirling mural and the gigantic shiny brass pipe as well. I'm sure that the brass pipe suppliers and all of the brass manufacturers would be happy to know that they are also being utilized for artistic works. I hope that through your blog and this artwork, many would come to love the Steampunk art and designs.

    More power to your blog!
