Architectural historian Vincent Scullycalled it
"the biggest small building of the second half
of the twentieth century.[3]
The five room house stands only about 30 feet
(9 m) tall at the top of the chimney, but has a
monumental front facade, an effect achieved
by intentionally manipulating the architectural
elements that indicate a building's scale.[2]Anon-structural applique arch and "hole in the
wall" windows,
The Vanna Venturi House, one of the first
prominent works of the postmodern
architecturemovement, is located in the
neighborhood of Chestnut Hillin Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania. It was designed by
architect Robert Venturifor his mother VannaVenturi, and constructed between 1962 -1964.
the pitched roof rather than flat roof, the
emphasis on the central hearth and chimney, a
closed ground floor "set firmly on the ground"rather than the Modernist columns and glass
walls which open up the ground floor.[13]On
the front elevation the broken pediment or
gable and a purely ornamental applique arch
reflect a return toMannerist architectureand a
rejection of Modernism.
About historical references, the Swiss
architectural theorist Stanislaus vonMoos[20]regards the monumental facade as a
recall to Michelangelo's Porta Pia, the back
wall to Palladio'sNymphaeum at Villa
Barbaroand the broken pediments to the
facade of Moretti's Il Girasolehouse (building
also cited by Venturi's in Complexity andContradiction in architecture).[21]

The architecture is based on a "futuristic
farm" (the clock tower is the windmill, the
main building on the top-right corner is the
farmhouse, the cylindrical council chamber is
the silo, and the pentagonal building on the
bottom left is the barn)it connects with its local context and historical
architectural ideas, yet is decidedly
untraditional in design.
A pyramid shaped atrium brings natural light into

The building is famous for its postmodern
architecturaldesign topped with Flemish-
inspired neo-gothicspireswhich blend
architecturally with the city's historic
skyline.[5]It is constructed mainly of granite.
Sometimes called a "twin gothic structure", for
its pairs of spires, it is oriented North-South
and East-West (as named on a plaque along
the Windsorwaterfront park). One Detroit
Center won the Award of Excellence for its
design in 1996.

The "Dancing House" was inspired by Ginger
Rogers and Fred Astaire
the Dancing House has two central bodies. The
first is a tower of glass that is close to half
height and is supported by curved pillars, the
second runs parallel to the river, which is
characterized by the moldings that follow a
wavy motion and distributed through thewindows so the non-aligned .
Also the winding moldings on the facade make
it more confusing perspective, diminishing the
contrast with the buildings that surround it. The building, which stretches over an area of
5,400 m2, has been constructed of steel, glass
and precast concrete Clad revoked.
The dome is made of metal tubes and covered
with a mesh of stainless steel.
Construction is from 99 concrete panels each
of different shape and dimension, each
therefore requiring a unique wooden form.
The construction of the building in what is
described as a deconstructionist style
