Palladio was an important designer worldwide. He designed buildings inside and out that were the best of the renaissance period. He wrote one of the earliest books on architecture that can still be used today. Palladio wrote about his discoveries of the basic rules of architecture by studying ancient roman architecture. He also made up some of his own rules and incorporated them into his work. Palladio had his own "style." After he passed away, architects incorporated his style into their own work. People all around the world used his ideas which became known as Palladianism.
