Welcome to Giaconi.com

Giovanni Giaconi is the author of "THE VILLAS of PALLADIO"
published by Princeton Architectural Press, New York October 2003


TRADITIONAL HOME, September 2005:
For armchair travelers, try Italian watercolorist Giovanni Giaconi's
beautifully illustrated The Villas of Palladio, which includes
American architect Kim Williams' brief descriptions of each villa.

ARCHITECTURAL RECORD, September 2003:
"...carefully scaled, meticulously detailed, lovingly colored...the watercolors
form a wonderful historical record of the villas' condition today."

INTERIOR DESIGN, October 2003:
"Sometimes drawings are more informative than photographs. This is certainly true for Palladian
facades, where proportions and planar relationships merit exact study. "
