Double Images: "The House with the Kink" (Domenig)

Architect Günther Domenig's first internationally acclaimed completed work "The House with the Kink" (1974-1979, Grazer Schule) signals expressionistic, counter-modernist aesthetics.

"Both, the building's outdoor and indoor consistently readable untreated technology is transformed into an artistic biomorphic allegorical appearance of bones, tendons, skin, scales, tubes and veins. In this manner the building forms an organ-like body with its own aesthetic density and compactness, a symbol of life-facing activity that appeals to people, and invites to enter into its dynamic spatial concepts." ~ Werner Kitilitschka,
