LA

An icon of post-modernism, created for the architect's mother, and featured in Venturi's architectural polemic "Complexity and Contradiction". Constructed between 1962 - 1964. Has a monumental front facade, an effect achieved by intentionally manipulating the architectural elements that indicate a building’s scale.
