What is unique about Palladio's villa designs?

  • They are always built from marble

  • They always feature a rotunda

  • They were often symmetrical

  • They always include a moat

Answer

Palladio's villa designs are unique in that they are often symmetrical. This means that the two halves of the villa are mirror images of each other. This symmetry is often achieved by using the same architectural elements on both sides of the villa, such as columns, windows, and doors.
