    Prior Projects Working with DeLuca-Hoffman Associates, Inc.:

    West Falmouth Crossing – Falmouth, Maine:
    Assisted with site planning, landscape and irrigation design for a 140,000 s.f. commercial office building. Designs led to a jogging trail through the natural areas of the site, extensive buffering against residential abutters, and the creation of several outdoor spaces.

    Multiple outdoor plazas and pocket parks, both formal and natural, are defined by stone walls, landscaping, granite pavers and site furnishings. These elements were linked to earlier phases of development by change in pavement type, texture or color, including pavement stamping and stone dust jogging trail. The extensive landscaping was designed in accordance with design guidelines and municipal ordinances.

    Mill Brook Business Park – Saco, Maine:
    The entrance to a business park was transformed from a used car storage lot to a medianed entry with new project signage and perennial plantings framed by grassed mounds planted with shade trees. Street trees continue into the development, lining both sides of the road. This project is currently under construction. Landscape grading and installation oversight is being managed through DeLuca-Hoffman Associates, Inc.

    Nationwide Office Solutions – Scarborough, Maine:
    Landscape, walkway and railing design for office space in a business park. This project is currently under construction; landscape installation oversight will be provided through DeLuca-Hoffman Associates, Inc.

    Tidewater Farm/Tidewater Village – Falmouth, Maine:
    While at Orcutt Associates, Ms. Brunelle assisted with documentation of Master Planning concepts derived from a public charette conducted in 2001. She later assisted and completed the approved Master Plan for a 75-acre parcel of undeveloped land on the Presumpscot Estuary, adjacent to Falmouth’s Village Center. She worked with DeLuca-Hoffman Associates, Inc. and the developer to provide permitting plans and construction documents for common areas, landscape buffering, street and wetland plantings, and decorative street lighting. Developed design guidelines for both residential and commercial development parcels. Designed a variety of landscape package options for use with sale of residential unit prototypes. The residential portion, Tidewater Farm, is under construction. Construction oversight and review of residential site and landscape plans required by Design Guidelines will be provided through DeLuca-Hoffman Associates, Inc. Subdivision site design, landscaping and site lighting for the commercial portion, Tidewater Village, are in progress under DeLuca-Hoffman Associates, Inc. purview.

    Philippi Residence Hall, USM Campus, Gorham, Maine:
    Siting the building, parking, and connecting accessible walkways for a new residence hall and a series of terraced parking bays on a steep site was one of the significant challenges faced during preliminary design. Detailed grading, landscape design and selection of site furnishings and lighting completed the plans provided to the University.

    Hannaford Bros. Co.
