A State of the Art Operations Center for a Leader in Sustainability

Leading the way for healthy buildings in NH, Unitil’s Operations Center in Exeter boasts the latest in sustainable design practices and technology.  As a longtime partner of Unitil, Stibler played an early and integral role in designing this facility that would become not only LEED Certified, but also the first WELL Certified Gold building in NH.  Unitil’s commitment to the health and wellbeing of their people and the built environment is exhibited throughout their space.

To support the client’s sustainability design goals, we provided a comprehensive design, including space planning for natural light and views; furniture layout and specifications for ergonomic comfort; wellness and break room designs for employee engagement; and interior materials and finishes specifications for health and safety.  Biophilic design elements, starring a living plant wall, brighten the space and provide improved air quality and other health benefits to all occupants.  Infusions of the company’s values and mission are visible around every corner, through bold graphics, bright branding colors, and nods to their company history and sense of place – all which support their HAB (History, Art and Branding) initiative.
