'Veni, Vidi, Vici', I guess. - Vignola, ... - Palladio, who skip the easier proportions for Gibbs to fill in later. - Serlio, who humble himself and propose something else we can't ignore. I guess I don't know enough to realize what Vignola influenced the most. 😁

I did skim through some of the treatises and find the journey of each country pretty interesting. For example, British, by adopting Palladio, Isaac Ware translated Palladio's version to english. He also kindly included Inigo Jones' designs in his 1756 book, a Complete Body. Later on, Sir William Chambers had concluded British version in his treatise, 1862 (1000+ pages). I am not interested enough to look into French takes on the treatises. But, I found how the American Vignola flourished in another continent might be pretty useful. If these treatises are the core of Classical architecture, I think it would be interesting to see your in-depth knowledge apply to this core and see it flourishes, too. Best regards, Your student, 30 😁

My undergrad based on IR, nothing related of Classical architecture No grad and I'm from Thailand. I'm just curious about Classical, so I looked it up on KZbin and found you. That's all. Thank you for you lessons 👏🏻

[@ApexAlphaFoxtrot]

All my books based on ICAA lists, and some from Palladian center patternbooks Just find it interesting, that's all, that's all 😆

Please, please bring back traditional, classical and vernacular architecture and design new spaces that are welcoming to people. Modern architecture and cities are horrible and awards are given just for pure ugliness.
