// Design Standards Update
Newbridge Cluster design standards are under update. Through refreshing the standards, we aim to ease the Reston Association application process by including more specific details and guidance. The last update was 20 years ago and the currently documented models, makes, and colors no longer exist in some cases.
The Newbridge Design Committee has proposed draft standards for consideration, which includes: Trim & Fence, Lighting, Doors, Windows, Decks & Patios, Siding, Enclosures & Sheds. The color palette is still under update.
Please provide any feedback or requests regarding the design standards update to the board.
