We were commissioned by the local community, To develop a master plan for their Masjid complex.
Burhani design was involved with this project since 2004. Various schematic design iterations were presented to the community to add a new addition which comprised of a large Gathering hall, dining hall, commercial kitchen and a separate building for a community school along with residences for the faculty.
Additional land was purchased to accommodate this new addition. After going through various zoning meetings with DuPage County, a plan was finally approved after a few years.
The clients were exceptionally environmentally conscious and were enthusiastic about our sustainable design suggestions. We incorporated solar panels, green roofs, and energy-efficient MEP systems to create an eco-friendly community building that would set an example for the other religious buildings in that area.
After 15+ years of fundraising efforts and approvals the project is currently under construction.
