33 IV. Building Design 32 Miami Worldcenter Development Standards

34 Building Continuity Intent y To establish a high standard of excellence in building design. y To develop a district with a distinct sense of form and place. y To avoid the development of streets with varying levels of design quality. Standards Individual structures shall be continuous in design with no street facing side unimproved. Architectural details (including roof lines, cornices, and parapets) shall continue around all sides of a structure. Comparable materials shall be used on all sides of a structure. Example Peninsula Hotel N. Michigan Ave, Chicago Miami Worldcenter Development Standards 33

35 Architectural Scaling Elements Intent y To avoid large areas of undifferentiated or blank building facades. y To create a comfortably scaled and thoughtfully detailed pedestrian environment through the use of well-designed architectural forms and details. y To create building facades that take advantage of Miami s sunny climate to reinforce changes in plane, material texture, and detail through the interplay of light and shadow. Standards Architectural scaling elements should be used to reduce the appearance of large building facades. Variation in building scaling may include changes in wall plane or height and may relate to primary building entries, important corners or other significant architectural features. Architectural detail may relate to but not necessarily mimic traditional building details, such as pilasters and belt courses, to establish a human-scale vocabulary. Balconies and terraces are strongly encouraged for residential uses. These elements shall be incorporated into vertical and horizontal shifts and building massing wherever possible. Example San Diego, CA Balconies incorporated into projecting bay windows 34 Miami Worldcenter Development Standards

36 Examples Architectural Scaling Elements France Lumina Building, London Miami Worldcenter Development Standards 35

37 Building Materials and Finishes Intent y To encourage human scaled buildings through the use of smaller material modules. y To ensure the consistent use of high quality materials appropriate to the urban environment. y To promote the use of environmentally responsible building materials. Standards All building materials to be used shall express their specific properties. For example, heavier more permanent materials (masonry) generally support lighter materials (stucco and glass). Building materials at the lower floors shall respond to the character of the pedestrian environment through such qualities as scale, texture, color and detail. Building materials shall be selected with the objectives of quality and durability within an urban context. The use of recycled, locally produced, and energy and resource responsible building materials is encouraged. Example Quality building materials used for storefront in Paris, France 36 Miami Worldcenter Development Standards

38 Examples Building Materials and Finishes Miami Worldcenter Development Standards 37

39 Building Entries Intent y To enhance the scale, activity, and function of building facades by orienting building entries to streets and other public spaces. y To reinforce the convenience of pedestrian activity and circulation along the street by creating multiple external, street oriented entries to ground floor, pedestrian-active uses. Standards Entries to ground floor uses shall be direct and as numerous as possible to encourage active pedestrian use. Each commercial use with an exterior, street-oriented exposure shall have an individual public entry from the street. All street-oriented building entries shall be directly connected to the public sidewalk via paved walk, stair, or ramp. Primary building entries shall be emphasized by recessing the door a minimum of 3-0, changes in wall plane or building massing, differentiation in material and/or color and greater level of detail. Entries shall be well lighted to announce the principle use and to provide for safety and security. Example Trilogy Building Boston, MA 38 Miami Worldcenter Development Standards

40 Fenestration Intent ` Standards y To provide a high degree of transparency at the lower levels of building facades. y To maximize the visibility of pedestrian active uses. y To provide an active, human scaled architectural pattern along the street. y To establish a pattern of individual windows and exterior openings within building facades that provides a greater variety of scale through material variation, detail and surface relief. The Facades on retail Frontages shall be detailed as storefronts and glazed with clear glass no less than seventy percent (70%) of the linear ground floor facade and any second floor facade fronting pedestrian-active uses such as breezeways, hallways, or bridges, and shall be constructed of transparent materials, or otherwise designed to allow pedestrians to view activities inside the building or displays related to those activities. Security screens shall be seventy percent (70%) open. For retail stores with an area of 35,000 sf or more along Frontages, the required area of glass in a retail facade shall be equal to 50% of the length of the unencumbered facade times 12 in height. For purposes of satisfying this glass requirement, the area of glass can be measured to a height of 16 above grade. No reflective coating shall be on the exterior surface of the glass. Transparent glass shall possess a minimum 60% light transmittance factor. No portion of the façade shall be of highly reflective glass (maximum reflectance factor of.25). Inclusion of human scaled proportions and elements in fenestration patterns, architectural detail, surface relief, texture and materials shall be encouraged. Miami Worldcenter Development Standards 39

41 Roofs Intent Standards y To integrate all building systems within a complete architectural form. y To develop roof forms that will make a positive contribution to the streetscape and to the Miami skyline. y To activate roofs with active uses, such as restaurants, bars, tower amenities, sports fields and gathering areas, and green spaces. y Encourage rooftop terraces and open spaces for the enjoyment of residents. y Encourage green roof design to reduce heat island effect. General Standards: y All mechanical, electrical and telecommunications systems shall be screened from view of surrounding streets, public open spaces and structures. y At least 25% of aggregate roof areas for the projects (excluding tower footprints and areas utilized for mechanical equipment) shall be planted as green roof gardens or public terraces (amenity decks). Remaining roof areas shall use light-colored/highalbedo materials. y Any screening devices employed to conceal mechanical equipment shall be consistent with the architectural character and composition of the building. y A Roof Structure is an enclosed habitable space. y Towers shall be spaced at least 60 apart. Roof Structures (also refer to Roof Diagram on Page 41) Roofs that are 30,000 square feet or larger may include Roof Structures. All Roof Structures shall be developed in accordance with the following standards: y Roof Structures which include habitable uses shall be counted towards the permissable FLR. y Roof Structures may cover up to 40% of the roof, excluding tower footprints. y Roof Structures shall be limited to two (2) stories and no more than 40 feet in height. y Roof Structures shall be located at least 30 feet in distance from an abutting Tower on the same Roof or Podium. y Roof Structures must be set back at least 10 feet from the edge of the Roof or Podium. y Roof Structures shall be located at least 30 feet in distance from an abutting Roof Structure on the same Roof or Podium. Examples A variety of vegetation, terraces, and other amenities can be used to create different roof top spaces. 40 Miami Worldcenter Development Standards

45 Lighting Intent y The use of lighting should be integrally designed as part of the built environment and should reflect a balance for the lighting needs with the contextual ambient light level of the surrounding area. y Lighting intensities should be controlled to assure that light spillage and glare are not directed at adjacent properties, neighboring areas, motorists, or the sky. Standards Building lighting should primarily be utilized to highlight special architectural features, building entries, and to illuminate sidewalk areas. Architectural lighting that results in hot spots should be avoided. Sidewalk lighting shall be designed for an average of 1.0 foot-candle horizontally and vertically, as measured 6-0 above ground, and shall maintain a uniformity ratio not to exceed 5:1 (note: these numbers are in accordance with the Illumination Engineering Society of North America Handbook, Ninth Edition) Full cut-off fixtures and shielding shall be utilized to effectively control glare and light trespass. Building lighting shall be carefully located so as not to shine into residential living space (on or off the property) or into public rights-of-way. Internally-illuminated awnings are not permitted. Lighting fixtures should be appropriate to the style of architecture or aesthetically concealed from view. LED lighting integrated into building glazing will be allowed as part of an overall signage plan approved by Warrant. Example Effective lighting strategies from Paris and Miami Beach 44 Miami Worldcenter Development Standards

46 Examples Lighting Miami Worldcenter Development Standards 45

47 Awnings and Canopies Intent y Encourage the use of awnings, canopies, and porte cocheres to provide visual interest, protection from the elements, and a sense of enclosure. y Encourage awning and canopy designs that complement and enhance the architecture of the building which they serve. y Encourage sun shading devices for public spaces, balconies, and roof terraces. Standards Awnings and canopies should be used primarily for weather protection. Internally-illuminated awnings are not permitted. The minimum height of awnings and other ground level canopies shall be 8-0 from the lowest point to the sidewalk. Awnings should typically be constructed of metal, canvas, or other high quality materials. No plastic or vinyl materials are permitted. Example The awnings help to shade this cafe area while creating an atmosphere of an outside room. 46 Miami Worldcenter Development Standards

54 table 1 SHARED PARKING STANDARDS SHARING FACTOR Function with Function RESIDENTIAL LODGING OFFICE COMMERCIAL RESIDENTIAL LODGING OFFICE COMMERCIAL The shared Parking Standards Table provides the method for calculating shared parking for buildings with more than one Use type. It refers to the parking requirements that appear in Table 4. The parking required for any two Functions on a Lot is calculated by dividing the number of spaces required by the lesser of the two uses by the appropriate factor from this Table and adding the result to the greater use parking requirement. For instance: for a building with a Residential Use requiring 100 spaces and a Commercial Use requiring 20 spaces, the 20 spaces divided by the sharing factor of 1.2 would reduce the total requirement to 100 plus 17 spaces. For uses not indicated in this chart on a mixed use lot a sharing factor of 1.1 shall be allowed. Additional sharing is allowed by Warrant. Parking and Loading This table describes the standards for Parking and Loading. Standards shall include the followinig: Off Street Parking Standards Angle of Parking Access Aisle Width One Way Traffic One Way Traffic Two Way Traffic Single Loaded Double Loaded Double Loaded ft. 21 ft. 21 ft ft ft ft ft. 9.5 ft ft.
