Aceto Landscape Architects

Remember that feeling you had as a kid when you discovered a new playground? Or when your parents took you camping for the first time? That excitement of discovery and exploration is what we try to bring to our park design work. We live to be outside, in nature. It’s how we thrive and restore our spirits. We want everyone to have that opportunity.

Team roll out! Nicole Cary | Project Lead

Nicole Cary is a Project Lead in our studio. Sharp and witty, she intuitively tracks and communicates critical project information while remaining exceptionally calm under pressure. Nicole provides hands-on leadership—guiding the team and maintaining close coordination with principals, designers, and design leads—to keep every project on track.

With a keen eye for design, Nicole serves as the Project Lead for the Kiwanis Aquatic Facility (Portland, ME), Kearsarge Community Common (Sutton, NH), Durgin Lane Housing (Portsmouth, NH), and the Minot Ave. and Court Street Transportation Studies (Auburn, ME), and more. She is known for being responsive, poised, even-keeled, and possessing a great sense of humor.

On a personal note, Nicole has painted impressive murals in her home. She also enjoys kayaking and whitewater rafting, and has thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail. Her home is shared with two very cool pet rabbits that are—amazingly—litter box trained.
