R W Ireland 17.06.2 Peebles Civic Society – Planning Responses September 2009 09/01095/ADV 16 High Street Peebles New fascia sign and hanging sign British Heart Foundation We object to this application. This shop is in a conservation area core area prime frontage and therefore the choice of colour and extent of its use needs careful consideration. Corporate identity colours and graphics and their extent should be tailored to suit the individual circumstances of the property and its surroundings. For example, we would contend that the neighbouring Help the Aged shop front is a misuse of colour and corporate graphics applied to a shopfront. The elevation illustrating the proposal shows the lettering in reverse - black on white. If the proposal were correctly illustrated with white lettering on red then the extent of the impact of the use of the bright red would be apparent. The proposal to have virtually the whole shop front painted bright red – shopfront, pilasters and ingoes, the framed fascia red background with white lettering, window frames, riser and door and will be too dominant on account of the bright red colour. Although there are other shops in the High Street that have single coloured fronts these are either light or very dark and are not obtrusive. The building containing the shop is one of the smaller buildings on the High Street and on this account the present predominant cream wall colour should be continued down the flat pilasters, the ingoes and along the fascia surround above the framed fascia sign as it is at present. The red should be really be limited to only the fascia sign. We would prefer that the existing clear wood of the strip below the fascia sign, window frames, riser and door should remain as clear wood but on account of its condition we could accept these to be painted the red. We would suggest a slightly darker red. PA09/01156/FUL – Nicola Page Replacement windows 2A Crossland Crescent Peebles 1. We object. 2. The subject of the application is upper flat of a detached building. Both the ground floor and the 1st floor currently retain original timber sash and case windows which create a symmetry to the whole building. 3. We feel that the introduction of uPVC windows will destroy that symmetry and that as a consequence the replacements should be timber sash and case to match the existing. PA09/01176/FUL – Robert C Forsyth Replacement windows 24 George Street Peebles No objection. R W Ireland 22.09.2009
