Garage door accents and detailing <br />should be used to break up its scale & <br />designed to echo home style detailing, <br />making it look less dominant, more a con- <br />tinuation of the structure. Do not use plain <br />flush steel doors. <br /> <br />3. Provide garage door treatments, win- <br />dows designed to echo home style detail- <br />lng. <br /> <br />4. Where there are garage walls with no <br />doors, there should be windows that match <br />other windows & trim/architectural details <br />of the home. <br /> <br />5. In area below floor line and above <br />grade, use stone, cultured rock, siding <br />extensions, lattice, brick, stucco and <br />verge boards. <br /> <br />D. ENTRY PORCH/STOOP <br />1. Provide a stoop or entry porch (of use- <br />able size), large enough for plants and seat- <br />lng. They should be covered by an over- <br />hang, roof, trellis, portico or detail appro- <br />priate to home style. <br /> <br />Where a smaller sheltered entry is planned, <br />provide a front-oriented entry setting such <br />as veranda, deck or patio suitably sized for <br />a minimum of two chairs. <br /> <br />Page 8 <br /> <br /> <br />
