Designed by Rafael Viñoly of RV Architecture, LLC, Vdara's 57-story crescent-shaped structure is formed by three parallel, offset arcs of varying heights. Because of its staggered arc design, Vdara contains six corner suites per floor, compared to just four in a more conventional building. The curvature of the building is complementary to the arcs of Aria Resort & Casino, which is located across a shared circular driveway.〔 Artwork is incorporated into Vdara's interior and exterior design. Nancy Rubin's canoe sculpture ''Big Edge'' is displayed at the entrance of the hotel and an painting by Frank Stella hangs above the registration desk in the lobby. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vdara」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
