Villa Valmarana at Lisiera.
Published version of the project in I quattro libri dell'architettura

The Villa Valmarana (also known as Valmarana Scagnolari Zen) is a Renaissance villa situated in Lisiera, a locality of Bolzano Vicentino, Province of Vicenza, northern Italy. Designed by Andrea Palladio, it was originally built in the 1560s.[1]

The villa was nearly totally destroyed during World War II, but has been rebuilt. Even before the war damage, the building did not closely resemble the plan which Palladio published in his Four Books of Architecture of 1570, possibly because Gianfrancesco Valmarana, the architect's client, died while his house was being built.
