Wendell Burnette Architects is a small architectural practice based in Phoenix, United States, operating in architecture and planning. The firm undertakes a mix of private and public projects, with a focus on space and light, context and place, and the surrounding environment and landscape. Its designs respond to site specifics and client needs, seek budget-conscious solutions, and emphasize craft to create spaces that engage people. The practice has earned international recognition for its approach to architecture that is functional and poetic. Its portfolio includes residences across local and national contexts, as well as public commissions such as Palo Verde Library / Maryvale Community Center, the Scottsdale Teen Center, and Amangiri Resort, the latter produced in collaboration with Marwan Al-Sayed and Rick Joy. The design process centers on listening to all aspects of a program and building consensus among clients, design team members, and potential contractors to deliver architecture that is uniquely appropriate and timeless. Public projects illustrate an active role in community life and the shaping of the places where people live and gather.
