I have always loved the look of a Gambrel Roof. It has such great lines to it. I happened upon this lovely house on Houzz. I was immediately taken by the roofline and the colours/materials used. Just plunk this puppy down on my property and I would be one happy camper. It has so much going on in terms of interest without being frenetic.
These lovely pics are from Hendel Homes .
It is so great to see interior shots of Gambrels where they have actually used the roofline to a design advantage inside. The pic below is the exterior.
I have admired this lovely home for some time now. I just love everything about it!!
The following 3 pics are modrn interpretations of Gambrel roofs.
I hope that this has given you all a little Architectural Inspiration for the day.
Have a great day everyone.

What a fine roof the first house has! Oftentimes, I see gambrel roofs on barns, and they’re usually only of one color. So, this two-tone roof is definitely set apart by the way the roof lines are well-defined. Why don’t you replace your roof with this one? I can see that you really love it. :] You know, giving in would be completely justifiable because gambrel roofs are also known to withstand extreme weather. -->Richard
