The 112,000 SF center was branded to reflect the lifestyles and culture that surround it, and the design needed to reflect that. Coupled with a powerful merchandising mix of [Stater Bros. Market](http://www.staterbros.com/), [Dunkin Donuts](https://www.dunkindonuts.com/en), and [Burger Boss](https://www.burgerboss.com/), the aesthetic choices will serve to enhance its already dynamic mash-up.  ![Exterior of Great Foundations Montessori at Village at Tustin Legacy, which has a modern farmhouse style](https://connect.regencycenters.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Tustin%202.jpg?width=640&name=Tustin%202.jpg "Tustin 2") The goal was to create something unique that would leave an impression within the community. The style, known as Modern Farmhouse Architecture, is a trending movement in the contemporary design world. This unique type of placemaking complemented what we set out to achieve at this property. ![Board & Brew storefront at the Village at Tustin Legacy](https://connect.regencycenters.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Tustin%209.jpeg?width=600&name=Tustin%209.jpeg "Tustin 9")   The buildings are designed with a mixture of board and batten siding, corrugated metal, stone, and black storefront windows. A brown and white color combination kept the atmosphere simple yet memorable. ![Outside a Bank of America in the Village](https://connect.regencycenters.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Tustin%203.jpg?width=640&name=Tustin%203.jpg "Tustin 3")   Village at Tustin Legacy is a great example of creating an experience for the shopper when developing or redeveloping our shopping centers, nationwide. The importance of architecture is a key element to crafting that unequaled sense of place that connects us with the communities we serve. ##### Connect With Us [Join Our Mailing List](https://www.regencycenters.com/connect-with-us/)  > [Explore Our Markets](https://www.regencycenters.com/properties/our-markets)  > [Find a Space For Your Place](https://www.regencycenters.com/properties)  > ##### Related Stories [Aug 14 Southbury Green Honored for Outstanding Landscape Design in Southbury, CT](https://connect.regencycenters.com/blog/southbury-green-honored-for-outstanding-landscape-design-in-southbury-ct) [Jun 27 A New Urban Farm Has Sprouted at Regency’s Mellody Farm](https://connect.regencycenters.com/blog/urban-farm-sprouted-at-regencys-mellody-farm) [Sep 21 New Staircase Mural in Full Bloom at Regency’s Grand Ridge Plaza](https://connect.regencycenters.com/blog/new-staircase-mural-in-full-bloom-at-regencys-grand-ridge-plaza) [Dec 11 Fresh Look Stories, Fall 2017](https://connect.regencycenters.com/blog/fresh-look-stories-fall-2017) [Dec 28 2016's Most Read Stories](https://connect.regencycenters.com/blog/most-read-stories-2016) [Jul 11 Dogs & Kittens are Heroes of Several Regency Summer Pet Events](https://connect.regencycenters.com/blog/regency-communities-celebrate-yappy-summer-with-four-legged-friends) [Dec 11 Fresh Look Stories, Fall 2017](https://connect.regencycenters.com/blog/fresh-look-stories-fall-2017) [May 14 Regency Centers Earns 18th Consecutive First Coast Healthiest Companies Award](https://connect.regencycenters.com/blog/18th-first-coast-healthiest-companies-award) [Feb 05 Regency Centers Announces Lone Tree Village Development in Colorado](https://connect.regencycenters.com/blog/regency-centers-announces-lone-tree-village-a-king-soopers-anchored-retail-destination-serving-the-ridgegate-community) [Jan 29 Regency Centers Acquires Mount Sinai Shopping Center in Long Island](https://connect.regencycenters.com/blog/mount-sinai-shopping-center-in-long-island) Subscribe [![Regency Centers](https://www.regencycenters.com/ResourcePackages/Regency/assets/dist/images/regency-centers.svg)](https://connect.regencycenters.com/) - [Careers](https://www.regencycenters.com/regency/careers) - [Investors](http://investors.regencycenters.com/) - [News](http://investors.regencycenters.com/news-releases) - [Fresh Look](https://www.regencycenters.com/regency/fresh-look) - [Tenants](https://www.regencycenters.com/tenants) - [Contact](https://www.regencycenters.com/contact) [Find a Property](https://www.regencycenters.com/properties) [Leasing Agent](https://www.regencycenters.com/contact) ![Reg Listed NYSE](https://connect.regencycenters.com/hubfs/blog2018/images/stock-ticker.svg) [Regency Centers Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/RegencyCenters) [Regency Centers Twitter](https://twitter.com/RegencyCenters) [Regency Centers Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/regencycenters/) [Regency Centers LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/regency-centers/) MEMBER **S&P 500** Regency Centers is a preeminent national owner, operator, and developer of shopping centers located in suburban trade areas with compelling demographics. ©2026 Regency Centers [Terms of Service](https://www.regencycenters.com/terms-of-service) [Privacy Policy](https://www.regencycenters.com/privacy-policy) Cookie Settings ![Quantcast](https://pixel.quantserve.com/pixel/p-XHwFJLhjBpfmt.gif) ![](https://connect.regencycenters.com/hubfs/Tustin%202-497001-edited.jpg) ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "Eric Davidson", "url" : "https://connect.regencycenters.com/blog/author/eric-davidson" }, "dateModified" : "2025-01-21T18:32:21.903Z", "datePublished" : "2017-12-06T19:00:00.000Z", "headline" : "Fresh Look Stories - Placemaking for Village at Tustin Legacy", "image" : [ "https://connect.regencycenters.com/hubfs/Tustin%202.jpg" ], "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://connect.regencycenters.com/blog/fresh-look-stories-placemaking-for-village-at-tustin-legacy", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "/hs/hsstatic/content_shared_assets/static-1.4081/img/vast.png" }, "name" : "Regency Centers" } } ```
