Hundertwasser Centre again
Once upon a time I was quite a fan of Hundertwasser, his painting style that is, back in the 1970s and 80s. The buildings he designed, well, they look very interesting, and appealed to me visually, but I remember hearing that the people living in them in Vienna and Paris didn't like them all that much.
Today I saw that the majority of the Whangarei Hundertwasser Centre has been finally revealed to view.
As far as my sense of aesthetics and design goes, there's only one thing I can say: What an atrocity. What a mind-bogglingly disproportionate eyesore. It fails to capture the spirit of the Hundertwasser designed houses I've seen; I completely fail to perceive any merit in this particular design. How sad. How astonishingly ugly. Call in the demolition crews ...

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
