5.0 out of 5 stars A fun take on serious architecture
Warning: Sense of humor (& imagination) required! The author had me at "Preface by R. V. Parke."

1.0 out of 5 stars Not what I was looking for

I have seen the real Vanna Venturi House and love the playful take featured on the cover, as well as the underlying concept of the book. I'm not an architect myself, nor am I necessarily familiar with all the famous buildings referenced, but this book is loads of fun anyway, and you can imagine the real structures being parodied. The author has also done "Outhouses by Famous Architects," which is another fun read.
