02 Flat roof

Court parapet

A flat roof that reads as a wall. The edge is the whole design.

A pale brick courtyard house with a flat roof, a single tree, and tall black windows.

On a courtyard house the roof is a parapet. There is no ridge to hide behind, so the flashing, the outlet and the top of the wall have to be exact.

This is the quiet work. If the edge is right, the building looks finished. If it is casual, the building looks unfinished from every angle.
