Casino Design by Justin Henderson
Casinos represent the height of architectural grandiosity. Spun from the fantasies of the millions of tourists who flood to Las Vegas, Connecticut's "Mohegan Sun" and resort spots around the world each year, their designs are extravagant and gigantic, and hugely successful. This study showcases the most fantastic examples from around the world of what has come to be called "entertainment architecture". Photographs illustrate what makes these designs work and why they encourage customers. The book showcases a wide range of projects, from oversized Las Vegas theme destinations to Native American casinos, plus riverboats, island resorts and exotic properties in Greece, South Africa and Turkey.
