Unfortunately, it is the old stock and I did not want to close off the loggia. Unfortunately, moving it is also not possible...

And if you walk with open eyes through older residential areas, you will notice that shed roofs, for example, were already widely built in the 70s, and many architects' houses of recent generations have a shed roof variant.

It's something special and not exactly the cheapest construction method, often found in houses not exactly suitable for families. I wouldn't call it ugly now - rather, most people cannot identify with these houses because there simply is no window installed there, so due to the height you can't look out and would rather build a storage room than an empty space at height.

Shed roof as such is still okay - offset shed roof ... well. However, I find not only the optical aspect but also the technical one not so convincing. An offset shed roof is definitely considerably more complex to seal and insulate, and thus it is also more prone to defects (in my view).

Mono-pitched roof, looks much better and not run-of-the-mill. Looks like a custom build, I like it. Although I personally prefer flat roofs.
