Very neat to read about Robert Venturi and his partners. Did not know that he was the guy responsible for the architecture that became the Las Vegas Strip. He really embraced visual culture. People to this day love going to the Vegas Strip to have a good time. The use of iconography and signage is what makes the strip. These postmodernism architects were brilliant. After reading this, it makes me want to go now, i want to participate in the tacky and crassness of Vegas. Who's with me?
