# Andrea Palladio

> His country houses rewrote the grammar of Western building. Four centuries on, columns and pediments still quote him—every neoclassical bank, every American plantation, every suburban portico traces back to a stonemason's son working in the Veneto.

## Bio

Andrea Palladio was born 30 November 1508 in the Venetian Republic and trained as a stonemason before turning to architecture. Steeped in Vitruvius and the ruins of Rome, he spent his career designing churches, palaces, and above all the villas that made his name—country houses for Venetian patrons scattered across the Veneto. In 1570 he published The Four Books of Architecture, a treatise that codified his method and carried his influence across Europe and the Atlantic. By his death on 19 August 1580, he'd shaped Vicenza with 23 buildings; today those works and 24 villas hold UNESCO World Heritage status. The churches stand within Venice's own protected lagoon, but it's the villas—their proportions, their temple fronts—that became the template for centuries of building to come.
