This brochure was found along a roadside stop in the middle of Ohio. Aside from being a ridiculous advertisement, it raises some interesting thoughts regarding appropriation in design and architecture: the "borrowing" of aesthetic ideas, the exploitation of someone else's work for the advancement of an alternative agenda, an "additive" architecture generating unintended meaning through radicalist ad hoc design practices. Anyway, here is an otherwise anonymous historic brick building monumentally converted to an iconic midwestern memorial.
