Pa 152 Silvara 1 Exhibits Version' 05.20.11 EXHIBIT J 1 VILLAGE CENTER ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN STANDARDS Section 1. Design Intent. The Village Center is intended to be a vibrant mix of pedestrian friendly shops, businesses, and restaurants for residents of the District as well as the surrounding community The tenant mix aims to combine everyday convenience offerings from trusted national tenants along with the friendliness and personal service of locally -owned and admired shops and restaurants. The charming, residential- scaled, urban character of the Village Center is inspired by smaller scale commercial centers that blossomed in the 1920's-30's around trolley -car stops. The eclectic mix of traditional architectural styles, high quality details and small scale urbanism is the perfect architectural precedent for the Village Center. Traditional architectural styles found in these precedent neighborhoods such as Italianate, Georgian, and Art Deco will be strategically employed and updated for contemporary tenant uses to make the Village Center appear that it has evolved over time and not built all at once. Six or more individual pedestrian scaled Buildings are planned with a mix of retail, restaurant and office tenants. The main exterior Building materials will consist of brick, painted brick, terra -cotta, limestone, including wood and metal -framed glass storefronts. Although some of the Buildings will have flat roofs and brick parapets, the residential character of some selected commercial buildings will be enhanced by the addition of gable, arch, and hip roof forms. Roofing materials will include both high quality architectural asphalt shingles (that appear like slate tiles) and painted metal standing seam roofs. Creating a wonderful gathering place that fosters community spirit where neighbors connect with one another is a key amenity planned for the District. Hiking and biking trails will flow through the Village Center connecting the District's residential neighborhoods and the surrounding neighborhoods. Seating walls will further delineate social seating nodes and places. Filially, the artful and lively ambiance of sidewalk cafes, eateries, and eclectic shops serve as precedents for the tenant storefront expressions planned for the Village Center. Carefully scripted tenant guidelines will orchestrate the tenant awnings, tenant signage, outdoor furniture, pots and amenities to create an array of "outdoor room" experiences that beckons visitors to browse, socialize, and to linger a little bit longer. Section 2. Character Exhibits. Character illustrations indicating conceptually the intended architecture and appearance of Buildings are provided in the Character Exhibits. Version 105.20.11 Silvara 1 Exhibits Page 153 EXHIBIT J 1 VILLAGE CENTER ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN STANDARDS Section 3. Building Facade Design Standards. 3.1 Buildings shall be generally oriented parallel and perpendicular to the street. Flexibility shall be permitted in Building orientation to provide for maximum sun exposure to the street and open spaces, or as the street layout dictates. 3.2 Pedestrian scale detailing shall be provided on the front elevation of the Building at the ground level. 3.3 End or corner segments of Buildings should generally have an additional level, decorative articulation or roof detail. 3.4 Outdoor seating, dining (signage shall be prohibited on outdoor dining umbrellas or tables), sales areas and gathering places are permitted to be incorporated into building exterior designs and public spaces to increase opportunities for social interaction by creating nodes for gathering and interaction. 3.5 Temporary uses such kiosks, vending carts and sales display stands that enliven public spaces shall be permitted. 3.6 The first floor and all other floors shall have a coordinated composition, which will usually be indicated by the alignment of upper floor windows and other features with openings and features of the first floor. 3.7 The ground floor of two -story Buildings should generally be a minimum of twelve (12) feet to fourteen (14) feet high and a greater height than the second floor. 3.8 Continuous facades more than sixty (60) feet wide shall be designed with vertical offsets at intervals which evenly divide the facade (e.g., into halves, thirds, or quarters) or shall be designed at intervals not less than sixty (60) feet, whichever is less. These offsets may be projecting, recessed, or may be a simple change in Building material or detailing. Section 4. Fences and Screening. 4.1 Fence construction along the front facade shall be decorative, such as wrought -iron style, decorative wood, or a courtyard wall. 4.2 Ground level mechanical/telecommunication equipment visible from a public street shall be screened with suitable landscaping, walls, or fencing in general architectural compatibility with the Building(s) with which it is associated. 4.3 Rooftop mechanical/telecommunication equipment shall be fully screened on all sides using parapets, penthouse screens or other similar methods which are integrated into the overall Building design. Page 154 Silvana 1 Exhibits Version 105.20.11 EXHIBIT J 1 VILLAGE CENTER ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN STANDARDS Section 5. Materials and Facades 5.1 The visual appeal of a Building's materials has a tremendous impact on the perception of its quality. High quality, robust and tactile finish materials project feelings of warmth, permanence, and timelessness. The relationship and use of materials, textures, details and color of a new Building's principal facades shall be visually compatible with and similar to those adjacent Buildings or shall not contrast conspicuously. Durable materials are especially critical at the street level where pedestrian contact will be considerable. 5.2 Exterior materials shall be durable and of high quality, such as Masonry, pre -cast concrete, concrete block, face brick, poured concrete, split face, scored split, scored smooth, or fluted masonry units, Quick Brick (brick look type Concrete Masonry Units), and high- quality siding of wood or fiber- cement. Materials such as thin layer synthetic stucco or EIF'S products should only be used a minimum of eight (8) feet above grade, unless otherwise approved by the Plan Commission as appropriate for the proposed architectural style. 5.3 The first floor and upper floors may be composed of different materials. 5.4 Front and side facades of Buildings located on corner lots shall be of the same materials and similarly detailed. 5.5 Building facades should have a defined base or foundation, middle or modulated wall, and a top formed by an articulated cornice, appropriate to the building style, unless otherwise approved by the Plan Commission. 5.6 Appropriate materials for the following Building elements shall be as follows: A. Windows: wood, vinyl clad wood, vinyl, anodized aluminum, aluminum -clad wood. B. Doors: wood, anodized aluminum, faux wood, steel (security doors). C. Trim: wood, synthetics. D. Visible roofmg: standing seam metal, zinc, architectural asphalt shingles, slate and high- quality synthetic slate, tile, and wood shake. 5.7 Exterior walks, steps, stoops and paving shall be masonry or stone pavers, or poured or pre -cast concrete. Exterior stair handrails and other stair details shall be stone, pre -cast concrete, wrought -iron style, wood, simulated wood products, or another decorative material. Version 105.20.11 Silvara I Exhibits Page 155 EXHIBIT J 1 VILLAGE CENTER ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN STANDARDS Section 6. Windows. 6.1 All window designs shall be architecturally compatible with the style, materials, color, details and proportion of the Building. 6.2 Windows should be provided 011 all facades. Exceptions shall be made for certain architectural styling, faux windows (such as "trompe 1'oeil and other details that imitate windows in locations where actual windows are not appropriate; provided, however, that any such techniques shall be architecturally compatible with the style, materials, color, details and proportion of the Building. Appropriate techniques do not include the use of shutters without glass, or the use of spandrel glass at the street level. Windows shall not be required on facades that are not visible from a public right -of -way. 6.3 Windows shall generally be vertically proportioned to the facade and the Building's other architectural elements. 6.4 Windows shall be rhythmically spaced in a pattern compatible with the form of the Building. Where Buildings are located on corners, the window style and details shall complement the facades on the facing streets. 6.5 Windows shall be recessed in their openings and not flush mounted with the wall, and shall appear as individually "punched" through the wall rather than as adjacent windows separated by frames. 6.6 At street level, glazing shall be clear or slightly tinted glass (not opaque or highly reflective). 6.7 Where appropriate to the design of a Building, paneled or louvered shutters shall be provided on all windows visibly exposed to a street or common open space. 6.8 Shutter style shall match the window and architectural style of the Building, and shall be sized to match actual window dimensions. 6.9 Single shutters shall not be used on double or larger windows. 6.10 Shutter materials should generally be wood, fiberglass, or a high quality composite. Plastic shutters are not permitted. 6.11 Shutters should be fully operable, or have hardware present that gives the illusion of operability, and should match in size the windows they are intended to cover. Page 156 Silvara I Exhibits Version 105.20.11 EXHIBIT J 1 VILLAGE CENTER ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN STANDARDS Section 7. Entrances. 7.1 Primary entrances shall be defined and articulated by elements such as lintels, pediments, pilasters, columns, porticos, porches, canopies, and other design elements appropriate to the architectural style and details of the Building as a whole. 7.2 A corner entrance is permitted at corner Buildings to improve visibility and pedestrian circulation, and to accentuate the corner. Corner entrances should be angled to address both streets. 7.3 Entrances to upper floors shall be clearly distinguished from storefront entrances through differentiated architectural treatment and materials. 7.4 Anodized metal, bright aluminum, or stainless steel frames, or fiilly glazed (frameless) doors shall be avoided. Finished frames may be metal with black anodized or painted finish (only "wide stile" frames), however, painted, stained, or varnished wood is preferable. Section 8. Roofs and Cornices 8.1 Cornices and Parapet Walls. A. There shall be articulation and detailing where the roof meets the wall, including cornices, eaves or rakes. Moldings, brackets, and finials can be used as special elements added to the cornice. B. Flat roofs should have a parapet wall or similar decorative feature on the Building's front and sides. C. In larger scale Buildings, extended parapets, projecting cornices, pitched or slope roofs, or decorative moldings of fourteen (14) inches or more are required to give the roof/cornice proper visual weight and proportion to the Building. D. Important architectural features, such as the cornice lines, shall be aligned from Building to Building provided, however, that there should be adequate variation to allow for an organic quality to the architecture without detracting from the coherence of the street wall. 8.2 Roof Shape. A. Traditional roofs are typically flat (1:12 roof pitch or less) and hidden behind parapet walls; however, sloped roofs, including gable, hipped, and shed roofs are also permitted if sloped between 4:12 and 12 :12. Mansard, gambrel, and domed roofs shall adhere to traditional forms and proportions. False roofs are generally inappropriate and should only be used in limited situations. In general, architectural solutions shall be used to best conceal mechanical equipment, particularly in rooftop applications.
