With freewheeling showmanship, he is trying to develop an "alphabet of ornament" that will provoke an emotional revolt against the austerity of modern architecture. In the midway atmosphere of Miami Beach and other resort areas, Lapidus, 57, finds the perfect outlet for the "new sensuality" expressed in his terrazzoed palazzos.
