摘要

ASA PROPERTY developer, Donald Trump's tastes were for the brash. The Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City, built at a cost of $1.2bn in 1990, featured neon-lit golden onion domes. The Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas, built at a reported cost of $8oom and opened in 2008, resembles a golden tombstone, towering 600 feet above the Strip. In more recent years Mr Trump's name has been attached to equally hideous edifices that he did not develop in places as far afield as Uruguay and India. So perhaps it should come as a surprise that in government Mr Trump's favoured architecture seems to be more conservative. On February 4th the Architectural Record, a trade journal, reported that it had been leaked a draft copy of an executive order the president intends to sign, ordering that new federal buildings should be designed in neoclassical style. According to the document, in recent decades, architects designing federal buildings have been too much influenced by "brutalism and deconstructi-vism" and should return to the era of America's founding, when the inspiration, both politically and architecturally, came from ancient Athens and Rome.
