Roof shape , colour ...

In my opinion:

1. The wall colours are also often considered.

1.1. Thus, if the exterior walls are white in colour; the metal roofing is often grey / silver tone.

1.2. If?ceramic / clay or terracotta tiles are used; often:

1.2.1 If the tiles are grey?in colour then preferably the exterior walls should be white.

1.2.2. If the tiles are clay or orange looking then there is lots of flexibility to use any colour for the exterior wall.

1.2.3. Avoid using blue coloured ceramic or terracotta tiles for the roofing - if possible. But if this is used; then the exterior wall colour should preferably be white.

1.2.4. In asia, it is also common to see ceramic / clay or terracotta tiles in maroon (kidney red) and even green in colour. But such colours are used less in other countries.

Good day
to
you Cecil,I would
like to
ask
you for
some of your
help.My
parents
are about to
reconstruct
a
roof on
their house.
The base
of the
house is a
rectangle shape
(
from the front it
looks like a
cube)
the house is made
compleatly
from
white bricks ,
until now
it
had a flat
roof but
now
it
will be changed
into a clasic
A
shape roof with
20% angle.
The
house is
situated in
east part
of
Slovak Republic.
It is a
big
multi-generation house.
The
"lord
of the house"
my father
is
born
on12.6.1947 , my mother
is born
on 1.9.1950 . My
sister 13.11.1978
is
living with
them too , with
her
son 24.3.2005 .
I am one
who
moves a
lot after
the work but

some periods I
live there
too
13.11.1977.The
house was
build
between
1980-1984 (we moved in)
but
all the years
it was under
is some
sort of
construction or
reconstruction.

And the front
door opens to
face
NW ( and the
smal flower
front
garden and road.
Behind is
tbig
garden where are
grown vegies
and
fruits.The
question: If we

put a metal
cower on the
roof what

colour should it
be ? And if
we
use a
tiles can it
be the

clasic terracota
colour? Or
should
we
look som
some particular
tiles
olour?
We would
prefer the
tiles
as it
is more
durable as
wetal
roof cowerings.
Thank you

very much for all
your
many
adwises I learned
on this
page
over the
years. Katarina
