Villa Almerico Capra Valmarana aka. “La Rotonda” is probably the most famous building by Andrea Palladio. A symmetrical building having a square plan and 4 facades, built on a hilltop outside the city of Vicenza, Italy. Everything has been designed to perfectly fit into the surrounding landscape; to do that, the four facades are not equals but include some differences between each other to allow each one to complement the surrounding landscape. “In this way, the symmetry of the architecture allows for the asymmetry of the landscape, and creates a seemingly symmetrical whole.” ([Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villa_Capra_%22La_Rotonda%22))
Villa La Rotonda has been an inspiration for a lot of buildings during the history: the most famous is the White House in Washington, D.C.
