We apologize for not getting back to you in a timely manner. Unfortunately, the designer who worked on this project is no longer with us. We had to do a little detective work...

What is the material of the roof? Thanks!

What colour and manufacturer are the steel roof, soffit and fascia? Hard to tell if I see dark brown and white or a black and cream colour.

The metal roof of that house looks amazing, especially the design of it. How would you install that, is it just nailing it on with a hammer or what? I ask this because of a thought that came to my about changing out the roof of my house. http://www.midmiamiroofing.com

Hi Emily,

The fire pit was purchased by the homeowners, but the Houzz Shop has plenty of similar products. Take a look!

Roof pods

- What are the little pods I the metal roof? Solar? If so, never seen solar quite like this and I'd like to know the manufacturer. Thank you!

Those little knobs look like snowguards - added to metal roofs to keep snow from sheeting and sliding off onto folks below.

Any chance you can tell me the exterior white color?

Unfortunately I don't have a record of the exterior color. We most commonly use Benjamin Moore White Dove for white woodwork and exteriors, so that is my best guess.

Roof

- Please let me know what kind of roof that is?

PRO
TreHus Architects+Interior Designers+Builders
It is a steel roof. In the specs, it says: Unclad, 24 gauge, 12"O.C., UC-4 steel standing seam system, Color : "Dark Bronze". There are good things and bad things about metal roofs - the good things are that they look great and can last 50 years or more. The bad thing is that they are very expensive - expect to pay $20K-30K more for a metal roof than for an asphalt shingle roof.

Is all of this concrete composite siding?

What Houzz contributors are saying:

Rachel Grace added this to Renovation Detail: Board and Batten SidingJul 12, 2012

A one-and-a-half-story cottage-style board and batten addition highlights this traditional 1902 foursquare. Notice how the design team played with proportion while installing the board and batten on each story.
