As you can see our roof looks like a monstrosity at the moment so we are Co sideline stepping out the kitchen and maybe a skillion roof. But are starting to run out of ideas and would love some others input on the design. Thanks Kate Help with roof design. 3Jun 10, 2016 8:42 pm This is my opinion so hopefully you don't mind.
- Porch undersized for width of facade - facade has no articulation which is why the roof dominates - there simply things you can do to improve the look Reduce roof pitch to 18 or 20 degrees, widen porch, lift the porch up, provide parapets I'll post some pics Re: Help with roof design. 7Jun 10, 2016 9:05 pm You could alternatively step out part of the media room and bed 4 to create a jut out incorporating the entry portico.. Sorry to bombard you, I work as a draftsperson/building designer and see lots of potential - pm me if you'd like me to sketch a couple of ideas! Re: Help with roof design. 8Jun 11, 2016 8:26 am Thanks guys I was only thinking last night about stepping out the media to incorporate it in the portico. I'm in qld is the a minimum roof pitch? Looking at changing media room windows to two 0618 one on top of each other and adding weathertex to the media room.

Make the portico much much bigger , make sure you have acoustic quality gib on wall between master and living and your media to reduce potential noise disruption, and rearrange bathroom and toilet do the loo door doesn't open directly at end of that long hallway. Maybe put toilet on other side of wall where vanities are so its door doesn't open direct along hallway, then move/ rearrange bathroom layout into what was the toilet space.

Does $1200 a square metre sound alright for moderately high finishes? G'day I'm trying to put in some privacy screening on my rental rooftop on a tight budget.
