Reading comprehension 4 question 3


when I heard the piece of music we were to base the design of our Palladian villa on, I immediately thought of a dance. This is the reason for the large central area, and the reason all the central rooms have doors opening to this area. This way humanity may pour into the space to gather, and socialize. In addition to using ratios derived from different musical harmonies for room sizes and placement of architectural details, I tried to imagine how people would move within the space, and dance around each other through the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
