Fallbrook is a 700-acre walkable mixed-use community in northwest Lincoln, envisioned by NEBCO, Inc. as a modern interpretation of the city’s most beloved historic neighborhoods. Inspired by the character and connectivity of areas like the Country Club and Near South districts, Fallbrook brought together residential, commercial, and civic spaces into a cohesive, livable environment.
Sinclair Hille Architects played a central role in realizing this vision—providing oversight of the master plan, guiding its evolution, and leading the design of the village commercial center alongside multiple residential neighborhoods. The firm served as the primary architectural influence behind the commercial core and its mixed-use buildings, as well as more than 50 homes throughout the development—work that reflects Sinclair Hille’s broader experience in shaping mixed-use and commercial environments.
This integrated approach allowed the development to evolve cohesively over time while maintaining a consistent architectural identity across uses and scales.
Rooted in principles of New Urbanism, Fallbrook was shaped through careful land planning, a long-term master plan, and a comprehensive set of Design Codes that established a consistent and enduring architectural language across the entire development. These guidelines provided clear direction for architects, developers, and builders, outlining approved styles, materials, and uses across four key districts: Business Park, Flex Building, Marketplace, and Town Center.
Beyond architecture, the Design Codes extended to site-specific elements such as landscaping, lighting, and signage—ensuring each project contributed to a unified and welcoming community. The result is a thoughtfully crafted neighborhood that balanced flexibility with cohesion, creating a place that feels both timeless and distinctly connected to its surroundings within the Lincoln community.
