Design Principles — Massing and Design <br />Promote massing and design that is in keeping with neighboring structures through compatible <br />building placement, roof design, setbacks, and additional second story stepbacks. Some design features <br />to consider include: <br />Building Placement - The existing development pattern for building <br />placement should be considered for the design of the new structure or <br />addition. <br />• Contextual setbacks - Where there is a strong pattern, the proposed <br />structure should utilize front and side setbacks that that generally align <br />with neighboring structures. In some cases, additional setback beyond the <br />minimum is appropriate. <br />• If there is a strong pattern for a specific orientation of the home, consider <br />utilizing similar orientation of the new home or addition. <br />• The design of the house should incorporate common architectural features <br />in the neighborhood, and utilize similar locations in the design. <br />0 <br />Redwood <br />Cityi-.L-ia <br />
