Palazzo Barbaran da Porto

It was designed by Palatino in 1569 for Barbara, a local aristocrat. The ingenious design uses a four-pillar atrium to combine several existing houses to form a complete house.

Barbara Porto Palace, located in the old city of Vicenza, is a 15th century aristocratic house, Baroque style building, the building is composed of four sub-buildings, the center of which is a corridor.

At Barbara's request, Palatino used ingenious design and a four-pillar atrium to combine several existing houses to form a complete house.

There are several rows of pillars in front of the door, which are beautifully decorated. The building now serves as a museum and Palladio Research Center, and often holds important architectural art exhibitions.

Combining several existing houses, Barbara, the aristocrat, designed the only large-scale urban building he had completed.
