Moreland Village
Moreland was one of at least 15 separate plantations that once occupied the land that is now Palmetto Bluff. Owned by the Cole family, the property’s primary crops were indigo, rice, and cotton. The sketch to the left depicts some of the buildings on the property.
Today, the physical remnants of Moreland are few. Two cemeteries located near Old Moreland Road tell of a working plantation and give a glimpse into the life of the place. Pine trees now replace ground once scattered with cotton and new marsh exists in historic rice paddies. Live Oaks grace the banks of the creek and marsh that, to this day, provide strong protection from incoming storms.
Paying homage to the history of the place through traditional architecture
Moreland
history at palmetto bluff
and planning, Moreland Village is envisioned as a settlement that evolved from a plantation to a small riverside town to a bustling neighborhood.
“The summer homes established along the May River were characterized by certain design traits that had been adapted to meet the demands of the Lowcountry, and were often raised above the ground on piers to provide
adequate ventilation. In most cases, these clapboard-sided residences had large porches for casual living.
Several well-preserved examples of this vernacular form of Lowcountry architectural design can still be viewed in some of Bluffton’s remaining antebellum homes. The Cole-Heyward House is a splendid illustration. In the early 1840s, John J. Cole built this summer dwelling for his family on Boundary Street. Like many builders of the day, Cole chose plans for his house based on the early Carolina Farmhouse style of architecture, which was heavily influenced from the West Indies. John and his wife Caroline Corley owned nearby Moreland Plantation located at May River Neck, or present-day Palmetto Bluff.”

Moreland vision
The Ultimate Inspiration for Lowcountry Adventure
Experience Principles Create and Celebrate Our Crossroads
Moreland will be designed to create the happy collisions that surprise and delight. From creating formal lifestyle hubs where programming and amenities share space, to finding and creating compelling “destinations” among our preserves and parks, to designing true gathering places where our trails and tracks intersect with each other – we will ensure that the exploration of Moreland is a communal experience. While we will encourage and embrace the time spent alone, we will ensure that this community comes together again and again.
Blur The Lines Between Indoor And Out, Developed And Undeveloped Moreland will create places and spaces where the indoors and outdoors feel united. With buildings that use windows, materials, and open spaces to spectacularly celebrate our unique outdoor environment, our architecture will both draw people in and inspire them to go out. At Moreland, nature’s design and man’s design come together dramatically. Boardwalks will wind amongst the trees before transitioning into dirt and back. Natural waterways will connect with developed waterways and pools – helping create a natural feeling even when you are in something that has been created. Moreland will provide a model for how design and development can celebrate the outdoor environment.
Bring Life To The Landscape Moreland will be a place of energy and activity – a natural environment that is enlivened by the people and passion that live and visit. Moreland will be filled with the laughter that comes from drinking and dining in inspiring outdoor environments. Moreland will be energized by the sounds of instruments and voices that we invite to play, sing, and talk in a one-of-a-kind setting. We will create centers of gravity – trailheads, game rooms, bars, imaginative events, and more – that attract a crowd. At Moreland, people will be compelled to congregate and celebrate as a part of a true community. Moreland won’t be afraid to get a little loud. Unlike the somewhat quiet reverence of Wilson, Moreland will have a hum.
Make It Easy To Explore The Lowcountry Environment Your Way Whether it is the serenity of a nature walk through the preserve, the challenge of testing your skills on the hunting grounds, or the pulse-pumping action of a four-wheeler tour of the property – Moreland is the ideal jumping off point for the best outdoor experiences of the Lowcountry. Our outfitters will be an unmatched basecamp where people gather to get the knowledge, gear, trail maps, and guidance to start their exploration of this unique outdoor environment – and will be home base for the celebration of those activities at the end of the day. Our conservationists and Lowcountry lifestyle guides will be contagious with their knowledge and passion – and Moreland’s programs will consistently inspire people young and old to immerse with this environment more fully. We will be innovative and creative in how we deliver on this promise – from expanded programs in the spirit of “Girlz Gone Wild” to kid-friendly surprises like a network of tree houses throughout the property. There will be no better place to have fun on the water, the marsh, and the woods of the Lowcountry.

projects with extensive experience in 4240’s residential and resort hospitality portfolio at the state, national, and international level. The diversity of location, character, and scale of his projects reflect his wide geographical reach and effectiveness in varying contexts. The joy inherent in sketching and drawing is apparent in his work and he continues this art to generate ideas, develop detail, and explore the human scale and proportion. 4240 Architecture is an award-winning design firm doing site-specific work on a global scale. Based in Denver, 4240 is a team of approximately 30 design professionals committed to a collaborative design process that intimately involves our clients and that involves deep research on each project to help us understand its needs and goals. 4240 was founded on the value of stewardship. “Knowing where you are” has emerged at the heart of our design philosophy, which emphasizes place-making, sustainable design, and respect for the environment, knowing that our built environment allows itself to be guided by its history, its culture, its topography, its ecology, and its micro-climate. Nowhere is this more elemental than in the South – along the edges of the coast, salt marshes, maritime forests, and the rich Lowcountry heritage.
Design philosophy The architecture for Moreland centers on this notion of stewardship. Inspired by the rich and beautiful Lowcountry setting, the architectural character at Moreland will not only be timeless, but will respond to the climate and natural setting and connect people to the landscape. This requires a firm understanding of the existing architectural patterns and language by way of form, massing, materials, and detail. Architectural strategies for Moreland will focus on the dismantling of the monolith. The buildings become smaller, less imposing – connected one-room wide designs with outdoor covered porches and breezeways that facilitate cross-ventilation and natural light. This strategy illustrates sensitivity to the land, with less conditioned space and results in rooms that are intimate, warm, and open to the outside. Forms and materials represent an evolution over time, incorporating modern building strategies with traditional forms that reflect the Lowcountry vernacular buildings without abstract contrast or contradiction. Simple roof forms with generous overhangs protect walls and occupants from the sun and rain. New or time-worn materials that weather gracefully will be used to blend with the natural setting and reinforce the “story” unique to Moreland.

Design philosophy Lynch Associates Architects is a firm founded on the fundamental principle that the greatest contribution of architecture is to strengthen and vitalize our communities. We believe that architecture, the natural landscape, and a building’s context are inextricably connected. Our ability to find inherent order among these complex components enables us to create projects tailored to their unique environments and our provocative clients. Our process is not informed by any one style or predetermined formula, but rather strives to create architecture that is inventive yet timeless. Both principals are personally involved in every project to contribute their individual strengths and expertise. Each project begins with a collaborative approach, which engages the client in an integrated design process from the initial concept through the project’s completion. We continue this approach in a project’s execution as we endeavor to translate concept into the craft of construction. The goal of Lynch Associates Architects is to create exceptional projects that are contextual and inherently sustainable. We embrace the opportunity to participate in the new vision for Moreland as it aligns with our core design principles of creating interdependent indoor and outdoor spaces, while still maintaining a cohesive neighborhood aesthetic anchored in the design standards set forth by Palmetto Bluff.
