Design Review Program
Project Reviews: Upcoming

The Design Review Board reviews projects at public meetings at least twice -- at an Early Design Guidance phase and a Recommendation phase. To learn more about the process, download The Community Guide to Design Review. 

For smaller projects, DPD assigns a Design Review planner to perform the review instead of the board.

Search the archive for design proposals and reports of recent project reviews.

Design Guidelines

Thirty design review guidelines for multifamily and commercial buildings--along with neighborhood-specific supplements--form the backbone of the City's Design Review Program in Seattle's neighborhoods. Separate guidelines govern downtown development.

In 2010, DPD will be updating the design guidelines for multifamily and commercial development.
