- Abstract
A Justified Plan Graph (JPG) method uses graph mathematics to measure the connectivity properties of an architectural plan, providing insights into how a building may have been used, or how it differs from other buildings. The standard JPG method has several practical limitations that are evident when it is used to study relatively simple planning, of the type found in Palladian villas. This paper introduces two new approaches that use weighted and directed centrality measures and that can provide a different type of plan graph analysis to accommodate the types of spatial properties and behaviours exhibited by visitors to and inhabitants of Palladio's villas. In this paper a comparison of the results of the standard JPG and the new weighted and directed JPG is developed for five Palladian villa plans. The results are used to highlight the differences between the two approaches and to suggest some implications for future readings of the planning of Palladian villas.
