A key feature of the Traditional Neighborhood zones is the review of architectural character of new dwellings, and emphasis on careful design to encourage a pedestrian-friendly neighborhood environment. Regulations in the TN zones are designed to promote the following: a. An attractive and unique neighborhood design that ranges from streetscape to the residential dwellings themselves which will be designed to promote interaction with the neighborhood, including the use of front porches, and garages set back behind the front plane of the dwelling; and b. Encourage a suitable environment for family life; c.

A circulation system that is pedestrian-friendly, is well connected to the community at-large and adjacent residential developments, and provides for alternative forms of transportation; e. The conservation of valuable resources ranging from water to energy. A key feature of the R-1(TN) zones is the review of the architectural character of single family dwellings, to ensure that homes reflect styles that are historic to the San Joaquin Valley. 25-17.2 Subdistricts In order to adequately plan for single family development at various densities, the R-1 (TN) district is further divided into the following subdistricts: R-1 (TN) (single family residential, 6,500 square foot minimum lot size); R-1-5 (TN) (single family residential, 5,000 square foot minimum lot size); R-1-4.25 (TN) (single family residential, 4,250 square foot lot size); 25-17.3 Permitted Uses The following uses are permitted by administrative approval, subject to development standards contained in this chapter. a.

  • Ornament and European Modernism: from Art Practice to Art History
    Ornament and European Modernism: from art practice to art history Review of: Ornament and European Modernism. From Art Practice to Art History, by Loretta Vandi (ed.), New York and London: Routledge, 2018, 198 pp., 38 colour & b/w illus. £110,00, ISBN: 978-1-138-74340-3 Ariane Varela Braga After a rejection that lasted almost one century, ornament has made a comeback that is no longer possible to ignore. This renewed interest in ornamental and richer decorative forms has spread from architecture to design, fashion and the visual arts in general. Ornament seems to have finally regained its place among the arts and has become once again a matter of reflection and experimentation, involving various materials and media. Adolf Loos’ aggressive condemnation in Ornament und Verbrechen (1910) appears now a long way off. This renewed interest has not left untouched the field of art and architectural history. Since the 1990s, and even more so since the beginning of this new century, studies have multiplied all over the world, involving an ever broader temporal and cultural panorama. This has led to numerous publications on the use, function and history of ornament, as well as the promotion of new editions of historical treatises, drawings and pattern books, in both printed and digital versions.1 These studies, which seem to increase every year,2 have not been limited to the Western arts, but 1 A recent example in this sense is Sabina de Cavi, ed, Giacomo Amato.

Considering a study of historic resources and the desires of the residents of Redwood City as expressed in a large Community Character Workshop as described in detail in Appendix 1: Historic Resources Preservation Strategy, Downtown has been broken down into six architectural “Character Zones.” Within these zones, six different “Character Types” are allowed in varying combinations depending on the nature of the zone and the preferences of the community.

  • The Synergy Between Structure and Ornament
    The Synergy between Structure and Ornament A reflection on the practice of tectonic in the digital and physical worlds Mania Aghaei Meibodi1, Hamia Aghaiemeybodi2. 1Lulea University of Technology, Sweden, 2KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden. 1http://www.ltu.se, 2http://www.kth.se [email protected], [email protected]. Abstract. The use of digital design and fabrication technologies in architecture has followed a paradigm shift, which has seen the topology, form and structure of architecture pushed to incorporate areas such as climate, construction, acoustic etc. While these digital technologies are intended to enhance the processes and performance, a discussion of aesthetics has been ignored. Surmising that the use of digital technology enhances the performability and efficiency aspects of architecture as well as the aesthetics, this research questions what the new relationships and arrangements for structure and ornament are. What are the challenges when structure uses a process-based logic and is sensitive to materiality whereas the aesthetics has a representation-based logic and is not sensitive to materiality? The authors of this paper contribute to this debate by using the notion of tectonic as a platform for gaining and creating knowledge about this issue and examining the issues through the design and prototyping of a Multi-functional Pavilion.

  • D.2 Residential Styles and Forms the Single-Family Dwelling in The
    D.2 Residential Styles and Forms The single-family dwelling in the suburban Washington, D.C. region is the dominant residential subtype within each community type. These structures comprise the individual residential resources of suburban neighborhoods and developments. Single-family dwellings were built of nearly every construction material. The detached single-family house was constructed individually by commission or speculation, in groups of small to D-14 large-scale development sometimes using prefabricated technology. The anticipated architectural styles and forms of single-family dwellings in the suburbs include: the I- house, vernacular residences, Victorian-era houses, Colonial Revival house, Tudor Revival house, Four-square, Bungalow, Cape Cod cottage, ranch dwelling, and split-level house. Despite the predominance of single-family residences in the suburbs, multi-family structures became a cost-effective and popular housing solution from the Industrial/Urban Dominance Period through the Modern Period. D.2.1 Agricultural-Industrial Transition Period (1815-1870) Residential buildings during this early period were constructed on the fringes of the city, in rural crossroads villages, along major routes of travel, and on modest farms, as well as large estates. The variety of residential suburban settings resulted in a wide range of building forms and styles constructed during this period. The most common suburban residential resource of this period was the vernacular building. Nineteenth century vernacular residences are characterized by simple ornamentation and mass-produced components, such as door frames, moldings, sash and window units, and porch decoration. In general, a vernacular residence was a layman’s response to the architectural styles and technologies that were popular and well-accepted while the residence was being built.
