Parametric Variations of Palladio's Villa Rotonda

Abstract: A computational tool for the study of proportional balance is introduced as an apparatus for investigating Andrea Palladio's design of Villa Almerico, more familiarly known as Villa Rotonda, in the second book of his Quattro Libri dell'Architettura. The objective of this investigation of Villa Rotonda is to find a novel outcome from the morphological transformations of the villa, where the transformations are generated from parametric variations of the villa while maximizing its proportional balance. The outco… Show more

“…Ces approches s'appuient sur des principes récursifs et des logiques de séquençage. George Hersey [17] ou encore Park [18], ont montré comment mathématiser les villas de Palladio ou comment les entablements ioniques se décrivent à l'aide d'une succession d'instructions récursives.…”

“…Four Books of Architecture present two important properties for computer applications: they show the Palladian buildings theoretical foundation as complete knowledge system, and they demonstrate a rigid formalism that well fits computer features and techniques (Wittkover, 1962). For these reasons many methods and techniques based on Palladian grammars, mainly generative techniques such as Palladian villa production with 3D printer (Sass, 2007) and generative algorithm applied to Villa Rotonda (Park, 2007), were developed during the last 30 years.…”

“…Besides, the development of increasingly refined and sophisticated parametric and procedural modeling systems has given rise, within this broad riverbed, a specific field of research which, by exploiting the possibility made available by these design and modeling tools, tries to give responses to the many points of interest that characterize this theme: e.g., the possibility of exploring multiple alternative solutions as well as allowing the formal study of classical architecture [13,14], defining a method for reconstruction in the form of a three-dimensional analysis and construction rules [15,16,17], assuring transparency of analytical methods and criteria used throughout the reconstructive process, showing related level of uncertainty obtained, etc. [18].…”
