The first version was begun by <a href="/wiki/John_Denham_(poet)" title="John Denham (poet)">Sir John Denham</a> in about 1664.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> It was a red-brick double-pile hip-roofed mansion with a recessed centre, typical of the style of the time, or perhaps even a little old fashioned.

In 1717 or 1718, the third Earl began making major modifications to Burlington House and the supervision of the work was undertaken by Gibbs. Later, <a href="/wiki/Colen_Campbell" title="Colen Campbell">Colen Campbell</a> was appointed to replace Gibbs, who was working in the Baroque style of <a href="/wiki/Sir_Christopher_Wren" class="mw-redirect" title="Sir Christopher Wren">Sir Christopher Wren</a>, to recast the work in a new manner on the old foundation. This was a key moment in the history of English architecture, as Campbell's work was in a strict Palladian style, and the aesthetic preferences of Campbell and Burlington, soon joined by the aesthetic style of their close associate <a href="/wiki/William_Kent" title="William Kent">William Kent</a>, who worked on interiors at Burlington House, were to provide the leading strain in English architecture and interior decoration for two generations. Campbell's work closely followed the form of the previous building and reused much of the structure, but the conventional front (south) façade was replaced with an austere two-storey composition, taking Palladio's <a href="/wiki/Palazzo_Porto" class="mw-redirect" title="Palazzo Porto">Palazzo Iseppo di Porti</a>, Vicenza, for a model<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> but omitting sculpture and substituting a <a href="/wiki/Balustrade" class="mw-redirect" title="Balustrade">balustrade</a> for the attic storey. The ground floor became a rusticated basement, which supported a monumental <i><a href="/wiki/Piano_nobile" title="Piano nobile">piano nobile</a></i> of nine bays. This had no centrepiece but was highlighted by <a href="/wiki/Venetian_window" title="Venetian window">venetian windows</a> in the projecting end bays, the first to be seen in England. Other alterations included a monumental screening gateway to Piccadilly and the reconstruction of most of the principal interiors, with typical Palladian features such as rich coved ceilings. The Saloon, constructed immediately after William Kent's return from Rome in December 1719, has survived in the most intact condition; it was the first Kentian interior designed in England.
