New indoor ‘box’ space is separated from LR- a place to greet and hang coats / bumpout’s door opens North rather than West into the wind, rain. Raised shed roof maintains streamlined ranch profile while preserving sunlight and views -for LR kitchen. Slanted steel columns support the open structure and prevent lift of the roof.

2013 Organic Gardening Mag, courtyard functions as entryway, parking space, driveway turnaround, and outdoor room. Bluestone /pea gravel can bear the weight of vehicles while allowing rainwater to permeate the ground, preventing run-off. Curving 7-foot-high green walls of shade-loving native plants create privacy and beauty, while native birch trees (Betula papyrifera) in the entry planters provide a handsome complement

double dormer of part width conversion --- sometimes, full-width dormers are not practical or desired. It could be that the Permission may not be achievable, or simply that the homeowner doesn’t like larger dormers and prefers them smaller, the width of a window or perhaps French windows. If more headroom is needed, create a dormer around a window, and gain a full-height space across the width of the window. This style will retain most of the roof’s original shape, inside and out. [However, this kind of dormer will add the least amount of additional full-height floor space.]
Part-width dormer conversion Sometimes, full-width dormers are not practical or desired. It could be that the appropriate Planning Permission may not be achievable, or simply that the homeowner doesn’t like larger dormers and prefers them smaller, the width of a window or perhaps French windows. So if a full-width dormer is not possible, but more headroom is needed, why not create a dormer around a window? As you can see here, you’ll gain a full-height space across the width of the window. This style will retain most of the roof’s original shape, inside and out. However, this kind of dormer will add the least amount of additional full-height floor space.
If, due to Planning Permission or financial constraints, it’s not possible to create dormers in /// TALL, NARROW LOFT like this /// consider leaving the available roof space as one, open-plan room, rather than dividing it with walls, which could make for a cramped feeling. /// maybe bathroom East, with bed area behind partial wall to avoid early sun traffic and north-facing skylights and south opening ventilating windows /// Where headroom is concerned you’ll probably have good head height along the ridge line in which to walk, and the rest of the space can be used for storage....All you need here (after installing the stairs) is to insulate, refurbish and purchase your roof lights to give yourself a very pleasing room.
