It was the first use of a giant order that spanned two storeys, here with a range of Corinthian pilasters and subsidiary Ionic columns flanking the ground-floor loggia openings and the second-floor windows. The year before Michelangelo's death, the fa\u00E7ade of the Palazzo dei Conservatori was started according to a new set of drawings produced under his supervision, and the building was completed (1568-1584) by Giacomo della Porta. It is now part of the Capitoline Museums.
