Summary, Infill Construction• Complement the existing architecture
by using details such as brickwork patterns or other design elements from neighboring buildings; this preserves continuity and respects the local architectural character.

• Have windows and doors that are prominent.

Infill, continued
• Place parking behind the buildings, and make sure that the entrance from the parking lot is attractive as well so there are two “front doors” into the building.
• Add appropriate elements of ornamentation and trim, color and articulation so the buildings are interesting to look at.
