111.2 Massing and Scale <br /> Buildings should be simple in body massing. Building frontages and sides should be oriented to Riverfront <br /> Drive,the Town Center,or Town Green. Large buildings that are adjacent to small buildings should consider <br /> and incorporate architectural design elements and details such that the scale of the larger building appears <br /> compatible with that of the smaller adjacent building. <br /> The design of the building form should reduce its apparent bulk by dividing the building into smaller masses. <br /> Ideally,the distinction of each mass should relate to the internal function of the building that may indicate a <br /> logical hierarchy for breaking down the mass of the building. <br /> Buildings should have variation in roof form, building height, and wall planes to ensure a visual variety in <br /> design. The use of reveals, projections, changes in texture and color articulate the massing and the <br /> addition of architectural elements such as canopies, fenestration, pilasters, and ornament further animate <br /> the design. Visual interest is especially important at the pedestrian level. Vertical breaks in height or <br /> continuous changes in plane are recommended <br /> 1 1 , - e <br /> A <br /> I. 1 I {+ <br /> ?.."; 5.1.Air! ,".., <br /> Everett Riverfront District Master Plan Novern er 1$.2008 <br /> 'Aixed Js. -p,el,,,-nw,t page 7 of 17 <br /> G-7 <br />
