            Bernardon provided design services for the STAR Tower,
            a public-private partnership between the University of
            Delaware and Delle Donne & Associates. This ten-story
            building is located at the University of Delaware STAR
            (Science,  Technology,  and  Advanced  Research)  Campus.
            The 120,000 SF structure  houses high-tech  classrooms
            and research facilities. Floors 2 through 7 are occupied
            by the University of Delaware College of Health Sciences,
            the college’s leadership team, and two departments.
            Education and research spaces are included, as well as new
            community wellness clinics. The remaining three floors
            consist of office space for commercial tenants working
            in the fields of biomedical engineering, information   Tower design reflects this by taking on the abstract form of
            technology, or other sciences.                    a butterfly emerging from a garden, which is represented by

            The design is inspired by “the butterfly effect,” which   serves as an iconic reminder of the change and innovation that

            location can prompt dramatic change in another. The
