Garage not the prominent front-facade element

Description

Avoid the 'snout-house' pattern where the garage is the most visible element from the street. Set the garage back, side-load it, or use a courtyard layout to subordinate it.

Why this exists

Snout-house garages dominate streetscape and signal car-first design.
