ART/ARCHITECTURE – Andrea Palladio


City of Vicenza
Which is 25 miles from Venice
Is one of the most important architectural tourist sites in the world
And for one reason
Many of the works of André Peladio are within, and around the city
Andre Beladio was born at the end of November
One hundred and five hundred years in the city of Padua
It was an architect and later became a stone quarrel
But he did not start designing the buildings himself until he was in his thirties
Throughout the 40 years following his career,
Belladio designed about 40 villas, two houses, and a few churches
Not a long list, given the abundance of construction during that period
During the majority of his professional career,
Experience a mix of successes and failures
But by the time he was in his sixties, he had finally emerged as the first architect in Venice
Which was the richest and most powerful city in the world at the time
Peladio’s views on architecture are almost entirely opposed to those common today
One of these views
Is that architecture has a specific and clear goal: to help us to be better people
He believed that we should build in a way that stimulates positive states of mind to ourselves and others
specially ,
Architecture can help us develop three positive psychological qualities
Nirvana, Harmony, and Grouper
To achieve Nirvana,
Reduces complexity
All elements in a room are central, balanced, and symmetrical
Only simple geometric shapes are used
In general, the walls are bare, and the furniture is slightly
The purity of the place, designed to calm us down
It invites us to focus, and to minimize distraction
For harmony,
Peladio was obsessed with making every element of the building fit perfectly with the rest of the elements
“Ideal construction should look like an imperfect and perfect body
And in which each element corresponds to the other and with the total elements, so that it seems absolutely essential “
The window design is linked to door design,
Each slot is parallel to the other openings
Each room is clear and simple
Doors are always located in a straight line
Construction creates an environment that gives us the limited, but real sense, that all important things are combined
One of Peladio’s ambitions
It gave greater reverence to aspects of life that had been denied to him, because they were regarded as unjustified injustice
Villa Barbara
A rural village house, about 40 miles north of Venice
Stables, stables, and granaries are as luxurious and majestic as the average owner’s house
Instead of hiding it or placing it in a remote place,
These premises are shown as supervisor and task
He was not trying to hide the practical reality of the farm,
But it was showing its true dignity
By continuing the old classical tradition,
Peladio believed that the buildings should compensate for our weaknesses
By encouraging us to be calmer, more balanced, and more moderate
About what we are in our daily lives
We need quiet, consistent, and confident buildings
Exactly because we are not enough
Ideally, architecture should be the embodiment of the best of us
Optimal construction is the ideal person
A thousand and five hundred and seventy published by Belladio written by the four about architecture
It is a first and foremost example of books (self-learning)
They give instructions on how to build
It has a practical guide on how to dig foundations
And the method of assessing the quality of cement
And practical ways to create walls and laying floors
It also developed rules for proportionality, based on simple mathematical ratios
To achieve a kind of visual harmony
The surrounding decoration is not the central thing,
Without it, the window aperture will remain beautiful
Because descent, not decoration, is what makes it consistent
This means, that on the same degree of beauty can be built at a lower cost
This was one of his main concerns
Because the proportions themselves are beautiful whether the building is made of marble, brick, cement or wood
It then gives us a wide range of rules to make buildings attractive
It should be symmetrical
There must be three, five, or seven slots on each side
And not a couple
The room must have a simple geometric shape
The length should be three-fifths of the width
The height is three-fifths width
Peladio considered himself literally
He was simply following a set of laws that others could follow as well
It was contrary to the idea that architecture requires a genius
The purpose of style books or templates is that the visually stylish buildings can be modeled
As happened in London and many other cities in the eighteenth century
Mainly because of Pilladio’s influence
Peladio’s ideas have continued throughout the ages
But the buildings are not actually “phalanx” as they contain columns or simulated old buildings
The buildings are “Peladi” when they are dedicated to tranquility, harmony, and veneration
And are based on rules and bases that can be widely used, and should be done
Then expresses the same hidden ambition that Peladio was his representative and advocate
It is natural for buildings to give us a compelling image of ourselves as the most serene and dignified
