In addition to his brother, he was Influenced by Jacopo Barozzi da Vignola. Three of his architectural works stand out: the renovation of the Cattedrale Metropolitana di San Pietro, with the construction of the main chapel and the courtyard of the nearby Archbishop's Palace (1575), the Palazzo Magnani (1576-87), now the local offices of Unicredit, and the Palazzo Mattei (1578).
