Description:: The Theme Building at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). The airport was designed jointly by Paul R. Williams, Pereira & Luckman Associates, and Welton Becket & Associates. The Theme Building was probably not designed by Williams. It has an observation deck, restaurant (closed in 2013), employee cafeteria and a bank. It became an instant landmark in Los Angeles which symbolized the city’s embrace of the 20th century space age.
