When I visited Las Vagas in the Easter Holidays, I fell in love with the wacky frontage to the Cosmopolitan Hotel and Casino.
As I walked round the building, at first right past it and then across the road from it, I was able to get so many different views of design. The large posts, which hold up the frontage are lit by neon lights all the way up, which are tilted at different angles all along. It looks like a wave which has been changed by technology, but still has its fluidity.
Walking past at a distance to this building was very interesting, as you
can see what the architect intended it to look like, but walking just
underneath it, to me was much more interesting, as you can look up, and
walk beneath the lit poles.

The frontage also adds a futuristic look to the other wise pastiche architecture of the Las Vagas strip. Because the Cosmopolitan opened only 2 years ago, and took 5 years to build, it is very modern in comparison to the likes of Caesars Palace, and I think much more interesting, because you can interact with the building, and it is just more unusual that the other Casino's and restaurants.
