Andrea Palladio
description Andrea Palladio Overview
Andrea Palladio was an Italian Renaissance architect whose work has had a lasting impact on Western architecture. His designs, particularly his villas, are characterized by strict symmetry, mathematical proportions, and the use of classical elements. His treatise 'The Four Books of Architecture' spread his style across Europe and the Americas, leading to the development of Palladianism. His influence is visible in countless government buildings and private residences, including the White House.
