Margaret,
Sorry for the confusion. I marked up the attached to clarify the vision glass, 'G'filmed glass(mocked up), and 'H'
translucent filmed glass at the one bay on the rear. The 'H' will be lit at night so the window glows to appear
transparent. This would just look like the shades are pulled down during the day.
Hope this is helpful.

Ryan, I have questions about the window films for Jared.The elevations show 4 treatments/rendering styles:
1. White
2. Gray labeled "G"
3. Gray labeled "H"
4. White/gray at main entrance
1. Is 1 meant to be plain, untreated vision glass?
2. 2 is meant to be the glass with the bronze film, right?
3. Is 3 the glass with the white and frost films?Why are the white and frost films used instead of the bronze?
4. Is 4 really just plain, untreated glass, or something else?
Thanks for your help.

Re: ARB201600002: The Shops at Stonefield G1 Amendment(Jared)
Dear Ms. Maliszewski,
Following are responses to the ARB Comments from both the February 16, 2016 and March 7, 2016
meetings regarding The Jared Building at the Shops at Stonefield. Proposed changes resulting from the
February 16 comments were presented at the March 7 meeting. The enclosed drawings represent the
proposed plans to date, incorporating comments from both meetings.
1. Lighten the color palette of the proposed building to increase compatibility with the existing
buildings of the shopping center.
The color palette is now adjusted to align with that of the other Parcel G Buildings as recommended
by ARB. The revised palette will ensure visual harmony among the Parcel G Buildings while
variations in material detailing and use will enable the G1 building to have degrees of individuality and
architectural interest. The same synthetic stucco color is used along the frieze of the proposed
building as is used on the façade of Buildings G3 and G4 on the parcel, drawing a clear connection
among the structures. A white birch-colored brick is proposed for the primary wall fields to provide
additional texture and individuality to the proposed building while aligning with the bright white color
scheme. A beige brick base anchors the building with a slightly heavier-feeling color tone that also
aligns with the beige on adjacent Parcel G buildings. Also, please note the cornice line has been
simplified and modernized through removal of the projecting molding appearance. This detail aligns
with that employed on Buildings G3 and G4, drawing further architectural relation.
2. Coordinate the materials shown in the sample board and the finish schedule.
The finish schedule has been adjusted to align with the sample board. The newly proposed"A"brick
sample will be sent for ARB review.
3. Clarify on the drawings the appearance of the back of the raised bays. Provide an appropriate
appearance for the Entrance Corridor.
The rear of each raised bay will be finished in the same manner and material as the sides and front,
with synthetic stucco of the same color, such that the raised element appears as a complete mass,
not an open screenwall.
4. Revise the design of the top part of the raised bays to scale down the wall area between the
top cornice and the secondary cornice.
The height of the raised bays is reduced in effort to achieve a proportion more appropriate to the
reminder of the building as well as to the other buildings on Parcel G. The height is reduced by 36
t__ r `"✓
inches, allowing for a projection of 38 % inches above the main parapet line. With a height of 26'-2
'/a, the raised bay is comparable to the raised bays on G3 and G4(26'-8').
5. Provide a detail of the cornice located between the brick and the EIFS to clarify its
appearance.
A dentil detail is included within the revised drawings on Sheet 02.
6. Identify on the drawings the paint color for the service door.
The service doors on the north elevation visible from the Entrance Corridor are reduced in quantity to
one. The remaining service door is now integrated within the window system and is an aluminum
door. The aluminum is proposed to be finished to match in color to the adjacent glass to provide a
homogenous appearance.
7. Call out more completely on the drawings the locations proposed for all window films. Provide
for review additional information to clarify the appearance of the windows and window films.
Show how the windows will have an appropriate appearance for the ECs.
Locations of filmed glazing are clarified on the elevations as Materials G and H. The intent is for
filmed glazing to be perceived as vision glazing in daylight under general observation. Film Material
H will provide a translucent quality ideal for backlighting at night to the central portico windows on the
north elevation as described further under Item 14.
UPDATE FROM MARCH 7 MEETING: Applicant prepared a sample mockup of the film using
12-inch square glass and film samples for ARB viewing. Reference enclosed Sheet 08 for the
mockup images.
The mockup of the proposed glazing and film was conducted and photographed under
various sky conditions, including overcast, mid-morning sun, and mid-afternoon sun. The
intent of the mockup is to convey that the proposed film, 3M Scotchcal 3030-69, when applied
to glazing immediately adjacent to a vision glass panel,provides a nearly identical appearance
to the vision glass when observed under the different daytime light conditions.
Windows will therefore read monolithically with no indication that some portions of glazing
are filmed, to the typical, casual observer.
The use of filmed glazing permits the implementation of fenestration on the building facade in
locations where internal,programmatic functions require a solid, opaque wall surface, thereby
accommodating the tenant's program and ensuring an architecturally interesting facade
appropriate for the project's prominent location on the Entrance Corridor.
8. Revise the architectural elevations to include the service yard wall that extends from the north
elevation and indicate materials/colors on the drawings. Consider moving the north service
door and related items to the west elevation.
Elevations are revised to incorporate the trash area screen walls and doors. Materials are now
identified on the elevations. The service doors on the north elevation are reduced in quantity from
three to one. The remaining service door is now integrated with the window system and is finished to
match the surrounding glazing.
9. Provide for review a photometric diagram showing the footcandles at ground level produced
by the proposed wall fixtures.
-e
The Lighting Plan has been adjusted to indicate Footcandle readings directly under each fixture.
Light levels at perimeter lot lines are analyzed and shown to be unchanged.
10. Coordinate all site, grading, utility, landscape and lighting drawings with the new building
footprint.
Noted. The Landscape Plan submitted indicates no significant change to the landscape plan. As the
building footprint is slightly smaller than the previously-approved plan, softscape areas immediately
surrounding the building footprint are extended to meet the building. A small extension of the
sidewalk around the northeast corner of the building is shown to serve the single, remaining service/
secondary egress door. The design team will work with the Civil Engineer, WW Associates, to record
all necessary adjustments and submit a Letter of Revision to the County.
11. Note that separate sign applications will be required for the wall signs. The sign submittal
should show sign type, color, illumination, etc. as outlined in the approved comprehensive
sign plan.
Noted, Applicant intends to comply with the approved Comprehensive Sign Plan. See also item 12
below.
12. Eliminate the diamond light from the proposal.
UPDATE FROM MARCH 7 MEETING: The diamond has been eliminated from the cornice line.
It will be incorporated as an integral part of the overall sign and will be compliant with the
approved Comprehensive Sign Plan. Please reference revised Sheets 02 and 03.
13. Reduce the scale of the sign letters.
Sign letters are proposed to be in compliance with the approved Comprehensive Sign Plan.
14. Reconsider the level of detail on the north elevation to be more consistent with the entrance
elevation.
The north elevation is redesigned per the recommendations of ARB. Applicant understands the
importance of this façade as it faces oncoming, southbound Entrance Corridor traffic and very closely
abuts the roadway. The redesign aims for this elevation to be perceived as an important façade
appropriate to its prominent location and orientation.
- Additional fenestration is added, flanking the central portico element and windows.
- The service/secondary egress door on the north elevation, previously located near the prominent
northeast corner, is shifted adjacent to the northwest corner, further from the EC.
- The east-facing service door is removed from the plan entirely.
- The one service/secondary egress door on the north elevation is incorporated into one of the
"punched"openings in the masonry wall, grouped with the windows, such that it is intentionally
unified, rather than appearing as a randomly-placed metal door in a masonry wall.
- Awnings are proposed above the new windows to provide additional visual interest.
e four large window units in the central portico are proposed to be filmed.with. ,.translucent
material and internally illuminated so they glow and appear as vision glass at night, further
est57Tshing the mfereg—iff cTinmporfance of th durinn:theF day and night
- CornJbe Ilnes gre'simprfled and modernized and the material pallet is adjusted to more closely

prominent gateway element made possible by the proposed improved facade with common
architectural links to the other adjacent buildings.

Attachments: 23 A14.pdf; REAR PORTAL ELEVATION.pdf; LIT WINDOW.jpg; 20160406_082358.jpg
Margaret,
Thanks for your comments. Responses:
1. Some of the windows that have the opaque bronze film are in the open sales area and the credit department.
Why can't these be full vision glass?
Jared has display cases and furniture that line and abut exterior walls. To avoid seeing the backs of
furnishings through the window which might appear cluttered and unorganized,they and we prefer a solid
area up to a wainscot height that conceals everything but still gives the appearance of grander windows on
the exterior. I understand their display case layout and interior functionality to be very thoroughly
programmed so the customer experience is planned and controlled. There are also some programmatic
functions that they do not want vision glazing adjacent to for security reasons. Sales areas, displays, and
support functions are specifically located with determined relationships to one another;a trait that
unfortunately does not lend itself to flexibility or adjusting the plan too significantly. Getting those rear doors
adjusted previously was a big win.
2. It looks like adjustments to interior walls on the EC side of the building would allow for windows there to be full
vision glass. Why can't this be done?
Same reasoning as above.
3. To achieve the effect you've described for the center window on the north elevation, it looks like you'll be
installing lights just for the purpose of creating the special effect. Is that correct? Do you have any photos of that
treatment lit at night?
That is correct. They would be discretely tucked around the window on the inside so the light sources are not
directly visible from the exterior and to wash light evenly across the glass. Attached is an example image. It is
a nice approach to ensure the facade is enlivened both day and night.
4. Can you provide a photo of the cornice dentil detail from an existing building?
Yes,see attached photo. A drawing detail is also attached.
5. The cornice color listed in the schedule is "white dove". This was not a previously approved color. I don't have a
sample, but I will need one. Do you have one available?
I will send a sample for delivery tomorrow. Here is an image. It is just another shade of white.

February 16, 2016 and March 7, 2016 meetings regarding The Jared Building at the Shops at Stonefield.
Proposed changes resulting from the February 16 comments were presented at the March 7 and April 18
meetings. The enclosed drawings represent the proposed plans to date, incorporating comments from
both meetings.
Comments from April 22, 2016 Letter
1. Remove the patina green metal from the materials schedule.
The material has been removed from the Schedule on Sheet 02. The Schedule is clouded to indicate
the change.
2. Include Rear Portal Elevation detail in architectural drawing set. Add a note to the detail

Re: ARB201600002: The Shops at Stonefield G1 Amendment(Jared)
Dear Ms. Maliszewski,
Following are responses to the ARB Comments from the February 16, 2016 meeting. Revised drawings
reflecting the changes are enclosed. I understand the short review time between your receipt of this
response and the next ARB meeting scheduled for March 7, 2016, but would very much appreciate your
permission to present these changes at that time if at all possible.
1. Lighten the color palette of the proposed building to increase compatibility with the existing
buildings of the shopping center.
The color palette is now adjusted to align with that of the other Parcel G Buildings as recommended
by ARB. The revised palette will ensure visual harmony among the Parcel G Buildings while
variations in material detailing and use will enable the G1 building to have degrees of individuality and
architectural interest. The same synthetic stucco color is used along the frieze of the proposed
building as is used on the facade of Buildings G3 and G4 on the parcel, drawing a clear connection
among the structures. A white birch-colored brick is proposed for the primary wall fields to provide
additional texture and individuality to the proposed building while aligning with the bright white color
scheme. A beige brick base anchors the building with a slightly heavier-feeling color tone that also
aligns with the beige on adjacent Parcel G buildings. Also, please note the cornice line has been
simplified and modernized through removal of the projecting molding appearance. This detail aligns
with that employed on Buildings G3 and G4, drawing further architectural relation.
2. Coordinate the materials shown in the sample board and the finish schedule.
The finish schedule has been adjusted to align with the sample board. The newly proposed"A"brick
sample will be sent for ARB review. , r
3. Clarify on the drawings the appearance of the back of the raised bays. Provide an appropriate
appearance for the Entrance Corridor. r-
The rear of each raised bay will be finished in the same manner and material as the sides and front,
with synthetic stucco of the same color, such that the raised element appears as a complete mass,
not an open screenwall.
4. Revise the design of the top part of the raised bays to scale down the wall area between the `3
top cornice and the secondary cornice.
The height of the raised bays is reduced in effort to achieve a proportion more appropriate to the
reminder of the building as well as to the other buildings on Parcel G. The height is reduced by 36
inches, allowing for a projection of 38 Y inches above the main parapet line. With a height of 26'-2 J
M", the raised bay is comparable to the raised bays on G3 and G4 (26'-8").
z,
—{e HOFN
5. Provide a detail of the cornice located between the brick and the EIFS to clarify its
appearance.
A dentil detail is included within the revised drawings on Sheet 02.
6. Identify on the drawings the paint color for the service door.
The service doors on the north elevation visible from the Entrance Corridor are reduced in quantity to
one. The remaining service door is now integrated within the window system and is an aluminum
door. The aluminum is proposed to be finished to match in color to the adjacent glass to provide a
homogenous appearance.
7. Call out more completely on the drawings the locations proposed for all window films. Provide
for review additional information to clarify the appearance of the windows and window films.
Show how the windows will have an appropriate appearance for the ECs.
Locations of filmed glazing are clarified on the elevations as Materials G and H. The intent is for
filmed glazing to be perceived as vision glazing in daylight under general observation. Film Material
H will provide a translucent quality ideal for backlighting at night to the central portico windows on the
north elevation as described further under Item 14.
8. Revise the architectural elevations to include the service yard wall that extends from the north
elevation and indicate materials/colors on the drawings. Consider moving the north service
door and related items to the west elevation.
Elevations are revised to incorporate the trash area screen walls and doors. Materials are now
identified on the elevations. The service doors on the north elevation are reduced in quantity from
three to one. The remaining service door is now integrated with the window system and is finished to
match the surrounding glazing.
9. Provide for review a photometric diagram showing the footcandles at ground level produced
by the proposed wall fixtures.
The Lighting Plan has been adjusted to indicate Footcandle readings directly under each fixture.
Light levels at perimeter lot lines are analyzed and shown to be unchanged.
10. Coordinate all site, grading, utility, landscape and lighting drawings with the new building
footprint.
Noted. The Landscape Plan submitted indicates no significant change to the landscape plan. As the
building footprint is slightly smaller than the previously-approved plan, softscape areas immediately
surrounding the building footprint are extended to meet the building. A small extension of the
sidewalk around the northeast corner of the building is shown to serve the single, remaining service/
secondary egress door. The design team will work with the Civil Engineer, WW Associates, to record
all necessary adjustments and submit a Letter of Revision to the County.
11. Note that separate sign applications will be required for the wall signs.The sign submittal
should show sign type, color, illumination,etc. as outlined in the approved comprehensive
sign plan.
Noted, Applicant intends to comply with the approved Comprehensive Sign Plan. See also item 12
below.
12. Eliminate the diamond light from the proposal.
-eELDEN5
The diamond in the cornice is a signature element of the building occupant. The Applicant and
building occupant respectfully request the ARB reconsider requiring its removal.
13. Reduce the scale of the sign letters.
Sign letters are proposed to be in compliance with the approved Comprehensive Sign Plan.
14. Reconsider the level of detail on the north elevation to be more consistent with the entrance
elevation.
The north elevation is redesigned per the recommendations of ARB. Applicant understands the
importance of this façade as it faces oncoming, southbound Entrance Corridor traffic and very closely
abuts the roadway. The redesign aims for this elevation to be perceived as an important façade
appropriate to its prominent location and orientation.
- Additional fenestration is added, flanking the central portico element and windows.
- The service/secondary egress door on the north elevation, previously located near the prominent
northeast corner, is shifted adjacent to the northwest corner, further from the EC.
- The east-facing service door is removed from the plan entirely.
- The one service/secondary egress door on the north elevation is incorporated into one of the
"punched"openings in the masonry wall, grouped with the windows, such that it is intentionally
unified, rather than appearing as a randomly-placed metal door in a masonry wall.
- Awnings are proposed above the new windows to provide additional visual interest.
- The four large window units in the central portico are proposed to be filmed with a translucent
material and internally illuminated so they glow and appear as vision glass at night, further
establishing the interest and importance of the façade during the day and night.
- Cornice lines are simplified and modernized and the material pallet is adjusted to more closely
align with the color and character of the other Parcel G buildings. The Jared building will act as a
prominent gateway element made possible by the proposed improved facade with common
architectural links to the other adjacent buildings.
Thank you for your review and continued support. Please let me know of questions.
