Are there any gutters? Are they concealed or do they not have any? - Where are the gutterings? Are they concealed or do they not have any, I have a similar roof line and am struggling with where to put the down spouts. I do not want to spoil the line of the house. »
Smith & Vansant Architects PC This roof does not have gutters. A smartly planted drip edge deals with water runoff in the non winter months, and during the winter the deeper overhangs push the snow far enough away to protect the building. Copper gutters might be appropriate here if they are hung correctly.
suziebraz Thank you for that, I did wonder, its not something you would see in england, at least not where I live. Unfortunately, I have steps running down both sides of my house, with no room for the garden area. I have talked to a builder friend and come up with a solution to my problem.

What color is the metal roof? Who is the mfg? - We are looking for a 26 ga. Metal that is a dark charcoal, but not quite black. Everything I have found is elephant gray. Thanks. »
Somehow this looks more open than dormers. Not sure why, but it seems the interior would be brighter when you pop the roof up like this. Construction cost?
This story and a half building is a good reference for the proportions, scale, and details, such as dormers, that we have been discussing. I also imagine that some of the entrances might have simple awning overhangs as shown here. (As an example, see Scheme A entrance)
