Project Profiles:

Owens and Minor Corporate Headquarters
Hanover County, VA
The 25 acre state-of-the-art corporate
headquarters embraced low impact design for stormwater management.
Timmons Group integrated stormwater and the aesthetic water feature
as the major focal point of the complex. Building and parking are beautifully
sited into the surrounding hardwood forest. Irrigation and native planting
were designed for minimum water requirements. Timmons Group’s ability to balance the delivery
of construction documents and construction administration in “fast
track” projects was once again proven to be a cost effective
option for the client.

Moseley Architects Headquarters
Richmond, VA
Our experts provided the renovation of
a 1930’s historic
factory into the corporate headquarters for Moseley Architects. The
brownfield development aspires to be a leader in industry standards
by achieving LEED® Platinum Certification. Collaboration
between architects, engineers and landscape architects has innovative
stormwater/cistern retention for irrigation and cooling. A partial
green roof and permeable paving have reduced site runoff by 30%. |

Southpoint Master Plan Concept and Streetscape
Design
Spotsylvania County, VA
Southpoint is one of the region’s
largest commercial and retail developments. Owners hired Timmons Group
to establish a quality standard for streetscaping and landscaping.
A master plan for the entire complex was approved. Timmons Group is
preparing many of the individual landscape, lighting and irrigation
plans including CarMax, Southpoint Retail Center and Wachovia Bank. |

Old Trail
Crozet, VA
The landscape architects at Timmons Group did the planting, playground
and open space planning and design for this planned community near
Charlottesville. This unique community will have a traditional downtown
surrounded by townhomes, apartments and larger home lots. Open space
along several creeks and watersheds will be preserved as parks and
recreational centers. The preserved open space along with the newly
built golf course provide clear views to the surrounding mountains. |

Hanover Elementary School
Hanover County, VA
In this LEED® project innovative ideas such as bio-filtration
and grass swales to minimize pollutant runoff were used. We created
a landscape plan that used only native drought tolerant vegetation
so that irrigation was not required. Limited disturbance to the maximum
ability and maintained a 100’ buffer from all existing wetlands. |
