Materials & architecture
A roof that follows the château’s architecture
The broad roof slopes and intersecting rooflines give this home its silhouette. A custom multicolor Slate Select blend carries across the different forms, with copper details providing contrast at architectural features and transitions.
The roof system
Understanding the materials
Slate Select is a manufactured roofing product rather than quarried natural slate. Keeping the material clearly identified helps homeowners compare the appearance and installation requirements of different slate roofing options. The project’s award film and documentary provide additional views of the home and the work.
