Burnley.

ArchiPro Project Summary - A compact and intimate urban infill home designed for gatherings, featuring robust materials, unexpected sky views, and ample greenery, in collaboration with Ample Architecture.

Title:: Burnley
Architect:: Sonelo Architects
Category:: Residential/; New Builds
Photographers:: Pier Carthew

In our early conversations, the way our client described their home as a gathering place for their families and friends resonated with us. How these gatherings took many forms and how they will evolve become the question central to us. This desire to create a home that brings their relation together whilst also personal to them becomes the driving concept. “More space” is not the answer. We felt that their new home needs to be compact, intimate, yet open and flexible.

Burnley is a composed urban infill to a row of townhouses that has replaced the formerly dominant terrace houses in the area. Sheltered behind the hit-and-miss brickwork is a tranquil home with robust materiality, unexpected sky views, and access to plenty of greenery.

A collaboration with Ample Architecture.
