The Pitched Roof: Architecture Manual Hardcover

Barbara Burren

The old-fashioned pitched roof is experiencing a resurrection, in often surprising forms. This profusely illustrated book explores the history of the pitched roof, its potential for a building's appearance and interior, and the relationship of the roofs to their context. The possibilities seem even more interesting as they are rediscovered by today's architects. Based on the longtime work at the Department of Architecture at the ZHAW Winterthur. Includes nine articles exploring the pitched roof from various points of view.
