I have been messing around with a new design that is inspired by the modern house my father-in-law lived in. It was sort of a mid-century design with the front bank of floor-to-ceiling windows leaning out at an angle. I have tried to mimic this here. I kept the 12x16 footprint. The roof is at a 15 degree angle. I should revise it to a 3/12 or whatever would be close to that. I know I need to revise the frame at the roof peak to accommodate the pitch, but this is for a general design sense.
I would be interested in hearing about any concerns or ideas about this design. I also revised all the timbers to 6x6, which I would suspect is sufficient for this scale. Rafters are 4x6.
I managed to leave enough space above for a small storage loft. Not a lot of headroom, but I wanted to keep the profile of the building fairly low.
