<< The catalogue of effects Venturi says
 he is striving for -- "vestigial elements, circumstantial distortions,
 ... exceptional diagonals, things in things, crowded or contained
 intricacies, ... redundant spaces" -- certainly sounds like there'd be
 things I'd be hitting my head on. The idea of "good *and* bad spaces" also
 seems to imply that there is meant to be some level of discomfort or
 inconvenience for the reader/user. >>
