            UGI Utilities, Inc. Headquarters


            Location: Denver, Pennsylvania

            Bernardon provided architecture and interior design services
            for an 80,000 SF, three-story corporate headquarters building for
            UGI Utilities, Inc. in rural Lancaster County.

            The 12-acre site mixes external visibility from major circulation
            paths with internal views of vegetation. Employing a linear
            embrace of the landscape allows the building to achieve the
            balance of presence and privacy, framing views to nature while
            shielding  occupants  from  the  activity  of  the  surrounding
            highways. The building is composed of simple brick masses
            woven together by contemporary glass elements, highlighting
            a traditional organization moving forward with advances in
            technology. This rhythm creates a streetscape-like appearance
            that reduces the scale of an otherwise large building.

            The concept of a streetscape is then carried through to
            the interior. In order to create connection and help foster
            collaboration, UGI’s departments and employees are linked by an
            internal street known as “Innovation Alley” that brings people
            and ideas together. From all parts of the building, this street leads
            to Central Park, which provides abundant views to nature as a
            backdrop to the interactive hub of a company embracing a new,
            brighter future.
