Hi Dinghui, you say starboard so I think you are talking about something technical to do with boats/ships, which I am not an expert of :). I googled starboard elevation and got some results, whereas starboard facade gave no results e.g.

Here are some more boat terms if you need

A facade is the front of a building, whereas an elevation is the front or side of a building or structure as shown on a drawing.
