Not so mellow yellow!



While this may look like construction scaffolding to some, it's part of the finished design of a local mid-century modern building here in Venice Florida.  I'm not sure what the building was built as but today it is a Japanese Restaurant downtown on Venice ave. where most of the buildings have an Italian look. I feel the building style fit's it's current use very well.

There was a boom in Venice in the 1950-60's which brought a lot of mid-century style to town, some of it very well done, which I feel this is, some not so much. 

I very much like the pattern of the yellow on blue in the top photo.  Today I'm adding another photo to put this in context of the building.
