   Just a note...the "Swiss Chalet" roof overhang in the third photo is to be changed this spring...

   Sweet: A great transition between the woods and the house. Strong yet discrete lines. Great use of colour. Tight execution.

   Will you shorten the Swiss Chalet gable or change the roof lines altogether?

   Thanks!  I guess the answer is both! The overhang obviously projects further at te peak, but the overhang at it's base is better. So, I will convert all to a 16" or so overhang that is parallel with the wall. Open detailing, rafters visible, roof deck to be beadboard where visible, as was done with the addition (the projection into the deck with four windows). The project is on this house...

    

   and the quick and crude concept sketch is the goal....the detailing of the entry post and beam area has been reduced nd refined, and the dormer window area  has evlolved as well...I'll try to snap a current drawing..

   And finally, heres a funny "progress" shot...another swiss chalet...just doesn't work for me! LOLJake Gulick

   It'll be worth $125K more when the job's done.
