Palladio Response

Hello, everyone! This morning, I'll be making a post about an building that's inspired by the architect Andrea Palladio. The point of the assignment is to look within the past 25 years, however I couldn't find anything closer than within the past 31 years--so please, bare with me. The building I found is 2 Homs Court (built by San Francisco's House & House Architects). The visible inspiration is in the symmetry of the structure, the patterned placement of windows, and the application of columns on the sides of the front entrance. All of these aspects are very obvious when viewing Palladio's work, hence the inspiration.
Below is the image and the link to the website I found it from.
