Columns

Columns in Casino Style 2025. Recurring voices. Opinion and analysis from the designers, developers and operators the magazine keeps coming back to, filed by department rather than by project. 2 subsections. The rest of the issue follows below. Sections are the magazine's own: each annual was assembled out of departments that recurred from year to year, and the pages are kept at the addresses the issue gave them.

10 stories sit under Columns, all of them from 2025. The longest of them is A Whole New Game: Making Money Beyond the Casino Floor.

Across the sections of the magazine they break down as Hospitality (8), Development (1) and Interiors (1). The design moves that come back most often here are theming (5), water features (2) and boutique scale (2), counted by reading the text of every story rather than from tags. Columns is one of 13 departments in Casino Style 2025; the others are CASINO DESIGN AWARDS, CUTTING EDGE, Departments, DESIGN MARKETING and DESIGN PARADIGM, among others. The issue as a whole carried 38 stories, and all of them are listed on the Casino Style 2025 page. In order, the set runs A Whole New Game: Making Money Beyond the Casino Floor, Demystifying Data, It's Showtime, Retail Therapy, Topping the Food Chain, Dancing for Dollars, Dress to Impress, Entertainment Revolutionary, Wynn's Wonder and 50 Years of Amenities. 9 bylines appear on them — Julie Brinkerhoff Jacobs, Dave Bontempo, Marjorie Preston and William Sokolic — and each contributor has a page listing everything of theirs the archive holds.

Stories are listed newest first, with the issue each one ran in printed beside the headline. Nothing has been rewritten to fit the new sections: every page carries the text the magazine published, at the address it was published at, and the rubric is an index laid over the archive rather than a replacement for it. A story can therefore turn up under more than one heading — a resort tower that is an architecture story in its massing and a hospitality story in its rooms sits in both, and follows the same link either way.
