complexity  and  contradic7on    [Venturi,  1966]  

[We]  can  no  longer  afford  to  be  inOmidated  by  the  puritanically  moral  language  of  orthodox  Modern  architecture.  I  like  elements  which  are  hybrid  rather  than  “pure,”  compromising  rather  than  “clean,”  distorted  rather  than  “straighWorward,”  ambiguous  rather  than  “arOculated,”  perverse  as  well  as  impersonal,  boring  as  well  as  “interesOng,”  conven4onal  rather  than  “designed,”  accommoda4ng  rather  than  excluding,  redundant  rather  than  simple,  ves4gial  as  well  as  innovaOng,  inconsistent  and  equivocal  rather  than  direct  and  clear.  I  am  for  messy  vitality  over  obvious  unity.

Historical  reprise  has  been  a  mixed  blessing.  At  once  it  serves  to  educate  designers  about  history,  making  them  more  open  to  learn  about  past  eras  and  epochs,  but  also  sancOons  easy  formal  soluOons  devoid  of  originality.  While  some  criOcs  argue  that  overt  borrowing  from  the  past  tends  to  trivialize  both  past  and  present  by  promoOng  rote  design,  others  argue  that  the  introducOon  of  these  reprises  serves  to  enliven  the  field  by  offering  more  creaOve  opOons.  Where  history  is  intelligently  absorbed  the  results  are  invisible.  Where  history  is  used  effecOvely  as  a  model,  a  sense  of  appropriateness  is  usually  apparent.  But  where  history  is  just  a  cut-­‐and-­‐paste  procedure,  the  result  is  almost  always  a  cliché.
