Beyond the ponds and prairie, and behind a heavy line of new trees, Uline’s new corporate headquarters sits at the center of 200 acres of a meticulously developed landscape.

A dramatic "before" photo shows the humble beginning of this project, with construction just starting in an open field near the interstate.

Even the full landscape plan does not do justice to the size and scope of this project.

A view from a balcony in the corporate office includes a portion of the massive warehouse, plus the woods, prairie and the largest of the ponds near completion.

The entry at “the Lodge” sets the tone with large trees and boulders. Additional planting beds are colorful and inviting without being overly showy.

Just as the front architecture of the building welcomes you into this impressive company, the same design on the back welcomes you to explore and appreciate the impressive landscape.

The view from Uline’s back patio is a spectacular scene worthy of the locale … Pleasant Prairie! While the establishment of native plantings areas took time, it was worth the wait.

A million square feet of warehouse is buffered by a heavy line of new pines and native flowers. Walking paths connect the facilities and wind through the huge corporate property.

A huge field stone wall was built to define the property line between this site and adjacent farmland, and to accommodate an additional path around this outlying pond.

Free-standing stone walls also add distinction at the main entry. They, like the large but newly planted trees, look mature beyond their years.

The main entry features large beds of annuals and ornamental grasses. Like the company itself, they are precise and practical, and very well suited to Wisconsin’s business landscape.

Great attention was even given to the parking lots: what could have been acres of asphalt is a grid of paths and pocket gardens.

The scope of this landscape is difficult to capture in pictures, but there are many places on campus where the office and massive warehouse are nowhere in site.

Love of both nature and art are evident throughout the site, which is the perfect “gallery” for the owner’s eclectic sculpture collection.

A final photo showcases the key elements in this amazing landscape – perfect ponds, winding paths, hundreds of large trees and boulders and wildflowers as far as the eye can see.
