Residential — Halifax, Nova Scotia
Two pitches meet at a valley in the middle of the elevation — the junction a metal roof has to get right, because everything the roof sheds passes through it. The tile pattern is set out so the courses line through on both planes as they arrive at the valley.
Gutter, downpipe and fascia are the same brown as the covering. Against white render that leaves the roof, its edge and its drainage reading as one continuous element rather than three.

Two gabled volumes under one dark metal tile roof, photographed at dusk. Roof, fascias and rainwater goods share a single dark tone, so against pale render the whole roof edge reads as one line.
