Traditional House Exterior with a Green Roof Ideas and Designs
Besch Architecture
The exterior was designed to blend in with the original architecture and character of the existing residence. Slate roofing is used to match the existing slate roofing. The dormers were a feature to break up the roof, similar to the dormers on the existing house. The stone was brought in from WI to match the original stone on the house. Copper gutters and downspouts were also used to match the original house. The goal was to make the addition a seamless transition from the original residence and make it look like it was always part of the home.

Lenox House Design
These modern condo buildings overlook downtown Minneapolis and are stunningly placed on a narrow lot that used to use one low rambler home. Each building has 2 condos, all with beautiful views. The main levels feel like you living in the trees and the upper levels have beautiful views of the skyline. The buildings are a combination of metal and stucco. The heated driveway carries you down between the buildings to the garages beneath the units. Each unit has a separate entrance and has been customized entirely by each client.
Rudloff Custom Builders
We renovated the exterior and the 4-car garage of this colonial, New England-style estate in Haverford, PA. The 3-story main house has white, western red cedar siding and a green roof. The detached, 4-car garage also functions as a gentleman’s workshop. Originally, that building was two separate structures. The challenge was to create one building with a cohesive look that fit with the main house’s New England style. Challenge accepted! We started by building a breezeway to connect the two structures. The new building’s exterior mimics that of the main house’s siding, stone and roof, and has copper downspouts and gutters. The stone exterior has a German shmear finish to make the stone look as old as the stone on the house. The workshop portion features mahogany, carriage style doors. The workshop floors are reclaimed Belgian block brick.
