General Principles to be Applied in
Detailing Building Facades

• Give human scale to the building
• Use simple geometric patterns to detail
• Use reveals and brick patterning to detail
• Enhance what were once the original details of the structure
• Prevent monotony of large flat uninterrupted elevations through the use of architectural elements described above
• Use plantings to enhance the parking area and building entrances or remove the eye from unattractive views
• Consider all building faces and who views them
• The use of salvaged historic building materials is not recommended

General Principles to be Applied in
Detailing Visible Building Sides

• Continue facade articulation around the side of the building in the form of vertical pilasters and horizontal detailing.
• Where possible, incorporate windows or false openings into the design to complement those on the front of the building.
• Continue facade detailing around side of building in simpler form.
