The roof field was adapted to eight twelve to maintain the integrity of the French country style and at the same time to comply with the guidelines of the city.
The key to the project is the commitment to the preservation of existing trees, including three street trees in the city and an indigenous western mountain rail on a neighboring property. The board recommended the conditions to ensure that these trees are protected during the construction and emphasizes how important it is to maintain the green rooms of the neighborhood.
The design also includes a new in-floor pool and an accessory living unit (ADU) on the back, although the ADU does not fall under the check of the board. The project plans to replace existing chain-link fences with a decorative six foot high block wall, which improves the aesthetic attractiveness of the property and is also guaranteed privacy.
The board emphasized several approvals, including the need for decorative paving stones in the driveway and in the sidewalk, changes in the roof design for symmetry and converted windows to minimize the visual effects. These recommendations are intended to ensure that the new building matches the overall character of the neighborhood.
The public comments were minimal, without written feedback before the session. However, the homeowner expressed the strong wish to create a family home that respects the architectural diversity of the community. The recommendations of the board of directors and the commitment of the homeowner for thoughtful design reflect a joint effort to improve the living landscape of Glendale and at the same time attend the concerns of the community.
In the further course of the project, it will be of crucial importance for the homeowners to take into account the suggestions of the board of directors in order to ensure a harmonious addition to the neighborhood and to strengthen glendal commitment to the thoughtful urban development.
