How Often Does Anyone Ever Look Up And Notice The Roof?

How often does any of us ever look up and notice the roof. If you're like me, not that often. I have to admit, that I know nothing of the construction method of a common roof. When designing the basic facade of this building, I had no idea of what to do with the roof.

I resorted to the internet to school myself. I combed through several images to get a good idea of the basic concept of what makes up a roof.

The easiest part of this concept to grasp, were the interior components. I designed a half vaulted master bedroom ceiling, partial vaulted ceiling in the media room, and a full vaulted ceiling in the main hall. The open floor next to the stair case will allow natural light to flow from the 3 hall skylights, all the way to the first floor.
