V-Collections - Gems of Design

Italy

Italy is known for its considerable architectural achievements, such as the construction of arches, domes and similar structure during ancient Rome, the founding of the Renaissance architectural movement in the late-14th to 16th century and as the homeland of Palladianism, a style of construction which inspired movements such as that of Neoclassical architecture, and influenced the designs of noblemen who built their country houses all over the world, notably in the United Kingdom, Australia and the United States of America during the late-17th to early 20th centuries.
Ancient Roman architecture developed different aspects of Ancient Greek architecture and newer technologies such as the arch and the dome to create a new architectural style. Roman architecture flourished throughout the Empire during the Pax Romana. The use of new materials, particularly concrete, was an important feature.
