features, such as a metal standing roof, black window mullions, and an angled metal canopy, juxtapose the natural materials used throughout the building’s structure. “We worked with Builders Incorporated to deliver a state- of-the-art headquarters that seamlessly combines design and functionality,” said Phil Burkett , principal at Meyer and co-owner of Meyer Ar - chitects. “The office’s unique blend of local, historic materi - als and modern details creates an environment that honors tradition and innovation. This
project is a testament to our shared values of quality, sus - tainability, and community, and reflects the collaborative partnership between Meyer and Builders Incorporated.” The building’s location was strategically chosen to maximize views of a nearby pond, enhancing the natural ambiance and providing an attractive visual backdrop. The design team carefully sited the building to em - brace these views, creating an immersive connection between the workspace and its natural surroundings. Inside, the office boasts 12-foot-high wood-paneled ceilings featuring exposed mass timber, industrial metal joinery, ductwork, and piping. Additional features include warehouse space, offices, con - ference rooms, and a large café that connects to an outdoor deck. The outdoor area is fitted with a canopy, lighting, and a large, operable glass wall that creates an indoor-outdoor experience in the workplace café. Materials from the old farm building that once oc - cupied the site were used to build a stone wall leading to the building’s entrance. “Our new headquarters embodies productivity and innovation,” said Gregory Hill, president of Builders Incorporated. “Meyer under - stood our vision from day one and partnered with us to cre - ate a workplace that not only serves our company’s needs, but also showcases the high- quality work that Builders Incorporated is known for.” The design team also includ - ed principal George Wilson , architect Todd Sell , interi - ors project manager Jessica Nixon , senior designer and architect Danielle Carter , and interior designer Heather Witmer . Other project team members included MEP en - gineer Kupper Engineer- ing , structural engineer Bala Consulting Engineers , and Builders Incorporated as the construction manager. Meyer has completed doz - ens of corporate office projects, including the corporate head - quarters for Bala Consulting Engineers, a WELL Certified Gold workspace that fosters connection and innovation, The Philadelphia Inquirer, Risk Management Associa - tion, and Independence Blue Cross.
