1 What s working & What s not? Distance from the sidewalk/street to the building Landscape vs. Hardscape in front of the building Porches, stoops, steps, and entries Residential vs. contemporary character Use of color palettes Breaking the building up vertically (Does it look like one building or multiple smaller buildings?) Building materials and color EXISTING TOWNHOUSE 2287 PARKER GUIDELINES / PARKER, COLORADO / 3 MAY 2017 / City of Parker

2 Character can be adapted to mimic single family homes or attached product Works in a variety of styles and characters Building type works best with small setback from street or walkway Building pattern can read as one building or several individual buildings Regional Other TOWNHOUSE PRECEDENTS

3 Provides diversity and housing options Ideal for attainable ownership and senior downsizing Character can be adapted to mimic single family homes or attached product Works in a variety of styles and characters Regional Other DUPLEX PRECEDENTS

4 What s working & What s not? How the setback is treated? (Landscape vs. Hardscape) Porches, stoops, steps, entries, and balconies Use of color palettes Breaking the building up vertically (Does it look like one building or multiple smaller buildings?) Building materials and color Consistency vs. Variety within each complex EXISTING 3-STORY AND 4-STORY RESIDENTIAL 2287 PARKER GUIDELINES / PARKER, COLORADO / 3 MAY 2017 / City of Parker

5 Traditional vs. contemporary character Architectural variety (do all the buildings in a development look similar?) Relationship of buildings to the street and setback Usable balconies and porch depths Regional Other 3-STORY AND 4-STORY RESIDENTIAL PRECEDENTS

6 Porches and balconies should be deep enough to accommodate outdoor living space (small table and chairs, not just storage) Each building has a sense of entry (awning, overhang, stoop, porch, etc.) Setback treatments feel like they are part of the building design (landscape and hardscape together) Bay windows and other elements communicate the residential character of the building Regional Other RESIDENTIAL BUILDING ELEMENTS

7 What s working & What s not? How the frontages are treated? (Distance to street, hardscape, height of the first floor) Arcades, patios, and outdoor dining areas Vernacular vs. Contemporary character Use of color palettes Breaking the building up vertically (Does it look like one building or multiple smaller buildings?) Breaking the building up horizontally (Can you see a base, middle, and top?) Building materials and color Consistency vs. Variety along the street Streetscape elements/furniture EXISTING DOWNTOWN MIXED-USE BUILDINGS 2287 PARKER GUIDELINES / PARKER, COLORADO / 3 MAY 2017 / City of Parker

8 Buildings are designed to encourage activity at the ground level, with storefronts, bays, awnings, etc. Transparent windows to see into the retail space Upper floors are typically designed to communicate their use (residential, office, etc.) Often have special corner elements or other key features Regional Other MIXED-USE PRECEDENTS WITH GROUND FLOOR RETAIL

9 What s working & What s not? How do the buildings relate to the road? Are there any elements that create pleasant space for pedestrians? Does the character represent Parker or could it be anywhere? Use of color palettes Breaking the building up vertically (Does it look like one building or multiple smaller buildings?) Breaking the building up horizontally (Can you see a base, middle, and top?) Building materials and color Consistency vs. Variety within each commercial development EXISTING NEIGHBORHOOD/COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL 2287 PARKER GUIDELINES / PARKER, COLORADO / 3 MAY 2017 / City of Parker

10 Designed to encourage activity at the ground level, with storefronts, bays, awnings, etc. High percentage of transparency Single gem building or 2-story massing Can work with more urban settings or within commercial developments Streetscape and site design around the building are important because they are intended for pedestrians to extend the retail uses outside the building Regional Other NEIGHBORHOOD/COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL PRECEDENTS

11 What s working & What s not? How do the buildings relate to the road? Are there any elements that create pleasant space for pedestrians? Does the character represent Parker or could it be anywhere? Use of color palettes Breaking the building up vertically (Does it look like one building or multiple smaller buildings?) Breaking the building up horizontally (Can you see a base, middle, and top?) Building materials and color Consistency vs. Variety within each commercial development Does landscaping and green serve a purpose in making the development more pleasant? Beautiful? EXISTING REGIONAL COMMERCIAL 2287 PARKER GUIDELINES / PARKER, COLORADO / 3 MAY 2017 / City of Parker

12 Designed to encourage activity at the ground level, with storefronts, bays, awnings, etc. High percentage of transparency at entries Tall single story or 2-story massing Streetscape and site design around the building are important to enhance pedestrian realm and walkability Massing and materials become important on larger box buildings to break down the scale Regional Other REGIONAL COMMERCIAL PRECEDENTS

13 What s working & What s not? How the buildings relate to the road? Are there any elements that create pleasant space for pedestrians? Does the character represent Parker or could it be anywhere? Use of material palettes Breaking the building up horizontally (Can you see a base, middle, and top?) Does landscaping and green serve a purpose in making the development more pleasant? Beautiful? Does it feel like a public building? Family-friendly? Is it dignified in its design and siting? EXISTING INSTITUTIONAL/CIVIC 2287 PARKER GUIDELINES / PARKER, COLORADO / 3 MAY 2017 / City of Parker

14 Often sited in a way to set civic buildings apart from other uses (larger setback, more space around the building, plazas, etc.) Key elements or dramatic design to create focal points Hardscape/landscape and pedestrian approaches are very important Should feel welcoming and inviting to all Regional Other INSTITUTIONAL/CIVIC PRECEDENTS

15 What s working & What s not? How do the buildings relate to the road? Are there any elements that create pleasant space for pedestrians? Does the character represent Parker or could it be anywhere? Use of material palettes Breaking the building up horizontally (Can you see a base, middle, and top?) Consistency vs. Variety within each commercial development Does landscaping and green serve a purpose in making the development more pleasant? Beautiful? EXISTING LIGHT INDUSTRIAL 2287 PARKER GUIDELINES / PARKER, COLORADO / 3 MAY 2017 / City of Parker

16 Designed to encourage activity at the ground level, with storefronts, bays, awnings, etc. High percentage of transparency Tall floor heights Streetscape and site design around the building are important to enhance pedestrian realm and walkability Massing and materials become important on larger light industrial buildings to break down the scale LIGHT INDUSTRIAL PRECEDENTS

17 Materials make a difference in the quality and feel How the setback is handled is actually perceived as part of the streetscape (this is both a private and a public contribution, they have to work together) The relationship of landscaping and lighting to buildings and walkways determines how comfortable and safe spaces are for people Building elements interact with the streetscape (porches, stoops, awnings, arcades, low site walls, signs, planters, outdoor furniture, etc.) Streetscapes can be visual (for drivers) or functional (for pedestrians) STREETSCAPE PRECEDENTS

18 Open feel Designed for flexibility Clear places for people - walking, biking, running, recreating Natural feel, native palette Take water resources into account Places for people to sit with shade and comfortable furniture Use buildings to create meaningful spaces, rather than putting landscape into leftover spaces Open spaces in multi-family development should prioritize usable space (play, gathering, etc.) LANDSCAPE PRECEDENTS
