Jimmy Venturi's new website...
Steven, you asked a very leading question that was very narrowly focused. I can't say that the writings of V&SB made me think differently about architecture (having first read Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture while a sophomore in high school 1971-72), rather they just made me think more about architecture. Did the writings of V&SB allow me to go in new directions for design? No, CAD allowed me to go in a new direction for design, and it was CAD that allowed me to redraw Piranesi's Ichnographia Campus Martius which ultimately led to my thinking regarding St. Helena as architect and reenactionary architecturism. It was Kahn that first led me to the Campo Marzio, however.
