Roger Thomas is Aces

Casino Resort Designer, Roger Thomas, responsible for the romanticism, theatrical, and breath-taking designs of the Bellagio, Wynn Resorts and Casino, The Mirage, and the newly opened Encore, will be receiving the Casino Design Lifetime Achievement Award at the Global Gaming Expo on November 16th in Las Vegas.

I attended a lecture by Mr. Thomas at the Las Vegas Design Market in September of 2008. It was an inspiring and memorable experience.

For those of you that think one has to be formally educated in the area of interior design to become a Design Icon, here are some news: Roger Thomas received a BFA in Art History. He started his career as a designer when he was an apprentice during his teen years.

Hats off to Roger Thomas for creating an exciting visual experience for tourists and gaming aficionados of his Casino Resorts.
