I think it is beautiful…but…all I can see is Midsommer now 🙂

Anyone have more info on that eaves detail? Looks like the gutter is hidden in small slot, and with down-pipes hidden in the walls. Very cool stuff. Would love to see a detail drawing or some product info on that.

Very ugly and impractical

I’m curious how the eaves handle the snowfall in Canada? I think this roof/eaves would function similarly to a metal roof, as they typically don’t have exposed gutters. Snow just rolls off the roof, with no interference from anything.

This one is better than most, but honest question: Why do so many modern houses, especially those that are deliberately meant to interface with nature, eschew a large, deep, covered porch? This one has a port of sorts, but its design prevents folks sitting on it from getting a good cross breeze, blocks part of the view, and is both too tall and insufficiently deep to protect from the sun or blowing rain from many angles.
There is nothing better than a large porch if you want to be a part of the natural surroundings, while maintaining a level of comfort. Plus, it is a wonderful green feature, both by shading windows from direct sunlight and providing residents with a place that they can go for cooling breeze on many days when they would otherwise be tempted to turn on the AC.
