Close view of the upper right loggia; His appointment as Papal Architect in 1644 led to a commission from Innocent X for the design of the Palazzo Pamphili (1645-1650) in the Piazza Navona, a huge building in which the upper storeys of the central five bays are articulated with tiers of pilasters in a cumulative manner that lends no emphasis to the piano nobile.
