Snow load will never hold up this thing for a lifetime...
For me, it is part of the design of this roof that it challenges the imagination. I have already hung on the side of it and it is still alive. One aspect I like to draw attention to: The angle at which the canopy emerges from under the main roof is the same as that of the main roof. And although a distinct ridge is visible in front (an upper kink in the roof surface), it starts completely straight at the wall, parallel to the wall and gutter, and transitions evenly into the "new shape." It was noted that it has "no architectural connection to the house," to which I hereby disagree. Yes, it is certainly true that this element (so far :cool:) only occurs once on the house, but such "contradictions" frequently appear in nature, art, and elsewhere and are often interesting precisely because of that. Experiencing this also has to do with inner flexibility. I have no problem if someone says it gives them eye cancer or toenail curl, but I would like to point out that such assessments are on the one hand personal, and on the other hand might be evaluated differently in other times. Just wait: in 10 years probably all canopies will look like this ;) For me personally, it's no different with the modern straight edges of today. Cities like Prague or Venice show what people are "normally" attracted to. ...and with that I do not want to step on anyone’s toes. Japanese design is, for me, among the most sophisticated I know and they also love straight edges. And one more remark: I did not invent this shape to create something "special" and stand out, but because I want to create a "welcome" and spread friendliness. On the contrary, I do not particularly like to stand out, but more important to me is to breathe life into design possibilities. Sometimes you have to set priorities. That this is perceived differently is clear :)
