Low slope roof design. The country cottage roof system from custom shingles makes it easy to create a roof with a character all its own. Sloped roofs are common in houses in hilly areas and in cottages.
Contrasting colours like white and royal blue or red and yellow are used to paint the houses and roofs. The sides are all equal length and come together at the top to form a ridge. Made from heat treated wood the shingles that comprise the cotswold house roof give homes a quaint and somewhat animated appearance which help evoke the precious times of the old world.
However the hip roof has been used in many different styles of architecture and in a wide array of structures. A country cottage is a place of respite from the daily grind and its design should reflect this. In modern domestic architecture hip roofs are commonly seen in bungalows and cottages and have been integral to styles such as the american foursquare.
