Palladian Villa Design
- Palladio's villas often appear incomplete, with some parts unfinished or missing.
- They blend classical features with striking proportions, creating a stage-like image.
Palladian Villa Plans
- Palladio's villa plans are formulaic, using a system of proportions based on shapes and musical harmony.
- A central axis, grand rooms, and a loggia or portico entrance are typical features.
Room Scaling Logic
- Palladio uses a specific system for scaling rooms, avoiding direct connections between the largest and smallest.
- Intermediate rooms provide a gradual transition in scale, creating a logical flow.
