South Willamette Concept Plan <br />5. DESIGN FEATURES AND PRINCIPLES <br />STREETSIDE CHARACTER <br />Residential Streetside Design Elements <br />In residential areas the street -side realm provides <br />for a transition from public space to private space <br />from the curb to the building or private doorway. <br />The elements that compose this transition are <br />parking that buffers street traffic, to landscaping <br />and street trees, wide sidewalks, front yards or <br />gardens and porches or stoops. Elevating entry <br />floors several steps above grade further defines <br />transition and offers privacy to the residents by <br />lifting windows. <br />Form Based Codes address the <br />relationship between building facades <br />and the public realm, the form and mass <br />of buildings in relation to one another <br />and to the street. They are used to foster <br />a high quality public experience and <br />predictable built results by using physical <br />form, rather than use, as the organizing <br />principle for the code. <br />O <br />Set -Back Sidewalk Planter Parking <br />Strip <br />10' 6.5' 5' 7' <br />Residential Streetside <br />Design Elements <br />Canopy Trees <br />Pedestrian -Scale <br />Lighting <br />Landscaping <br />On- Street Parking <br />Clear and Friendly <br />on Edges <br />Front Gardens <br />Porches, Stoops, <br />and Balconies <br />Vertical Separation <br />Eyes on Street <br />Building Details <br />Travel Lanes <br />44 ■ City of Eugene <br />
