Baroque and rococo
Baroque
Baroque architecture is the building style of the Baroque era, begun in late 16th century Italy, that took the Roman vocabulary of Renaissance architecture and used it in a new rhetorical and theatrical fashion, often to express the triumph of the Catholic Church and the absolutist state. It was characterized by new explorations of form, light and shadow and dramatic intensity.
The three principal architects of this period were the sculptor Gianlorenzo Bernini, Francesco Borromini and the painter Pietro da Cortona and each evolved their own distinctively individual architectural expression.
s. susanna, rome
Conceived as a dramatic frontispiece, the façade relates to the piazza rather than the very small church it screens

Palazzo chigi-odescalchi, rome
Substanially altered in the eighteenth century holds the most important position in the development of roman palace facades.

Rococo
Rococo architecture, as mentioned above, was a lighter, more graceful, yet also more elaborate version of Baroque architecture, which was ornate and austere.
