English Palladian
English Palladian is an architectural style that emerged in England during the early 18th century. It is characterized by its symmetry, classical proportions, and the use of columns and pediments, drawing inspiration from the works of the Italian architect Andrea Palladio. This style often features grand facades and a focus on harmonious design.
Prominent examples of English Palladian architecture include Chiswick House and Holkham Hall. The style became popular among the English aristocracy, reflecting their desire for elegance and sophistication in their country houses. Its influence can still be seen in various buildings across the UK today.
