What ideas did Palladio have about architecture?

Palladio believed that a building and its decoration should be considered as a whole. He particularly admired the monuments left by the ancient Greeks and Romans, and often used the orders of classical columns in his buildings. The four most usual ones are the Roman Doric, Ionic, Corinthian and Composite.

Palladio also believed that the measurements carefully worked out by the Greeks gave their buildings a feeling of harmony and dignity. These measurements had been used in the 15th century in Renaissance palaces and churches by artist architects such as Alberti, Brunelleschi and Bramante. Palladio himself designed many churches and country houses based on these classical ideas.
