<strong>Pleasant</strong> <strong>Grove</strong> <strong>Downtown</strong> Village<br />
<strong>Design</strong> Standards and <strong>Guidelines</strong><br />
9. Color<br />
Good attention to design and color is<br />
expected in the <strong>Pleasant</strong> <strong>Grove</strong><br />
<strong>Downtown</strong> Village to help all buildings<br />
become more complimentary to each<br />
other and assist the creation of a<br />
unique and cohesive environment.<br />
Standards<br />
(Required by <strong>City</strong> Code)<br />
1. The façades of all buildings fronting<br />
on a public street shall demonstrate<br />
a variety in color.<br />
2. The color scheme used on a<br />
building should be appropriate to<br />
the <strong>Pleasant</strong> <strong>Grove</strong> Turn of the 20 th<br />
Century <strong>Design</strong> Theme.<br />
(Section 10-11E-2-14L-2)<br />
<strong>Guidelines</strong><br />
(Recommendations)<br />
1. The natural colors of brick masonry,<br />
stone, or other existing building<br />
materials should dominate the color<br />
scheme of the building. Other colors<br />
should be respectful of adjacent<br />
buildings.<br />
2. Building colors should follow hues<br />
common to historic regional brick<br />
used in the area during the Turn of<br />
the 20 th Century era.<br />
3. A predominant color should be used<br />
with one or two other accent colors.<br />
4. The cornice, window frames,<br />
ornamental details, signs and<br />
storefronts should all blend in as an<br />
attractive harmonious unit.<br />
5. Avoid pure white as a façade color,<br />
and if masonry must be painted, it<br />
should be done in a natural brickcolor<br />
hue.<br />
