Bad Blumau "Rolling Hills" Landscape

Hundertwasser designed an earth-sheltered spa complex which some have likened to a Telly Tubby Landscape. Yet it has real quality, is admired by visitors and may yet point the way to an urban design future in which most buildings are earth-sheltered. The advantages are many. Vegetation-covered buildings are better-insulated, better for wildlife, better for water conservation, quieter, cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
