Modern m shaped roof.
The sloped roofs on this modern house coupled with the wood paneling gives the house a very modern look.
Roof terminology is also not rigidly defined.
An m shaped roof is double pitched roof.
A m shaped roof is basically a double gable roof featuring two sloped sides that meet in the middle with corresponding slopes on each side.
Essentially a double gable.
This is a very modern design that is aesthetically unique like viewing a butterfly in flight while looking on from the exterior.
Roof shapes differ greatly from region to region.
The main factors which influence the shape of roofs are the climate and the materials available for roof structure and the outer covering.
The roof rests on two bearing walls with two sloping walls meeting in the middle to form an m shape.
This is a very modern design that is aesthetically unique.
Olson kundig architects designed this house in northeast oregon.
Central guttering runs between the two pitches to stop any snow or rain building up in the winter season.
Usages vary slightly from region to region or from one builder or architect to another.

It also features a central gutter at a right angle to the front facade.
Boasting one of the most striking of silhouettes among modern roof types m shaped roofs give off the impression of a bold zig zag horizon making even the simplest and spare buildings all the more statement making.

It provides plenty of light and ventilation but drainage is a problem.
Poorly constructed roofs endanger the people living in a building so you need to make the roof compatible to the rest of the building in a well engineered style.
One of the main reasons to clarify that m shaped roofs not only meet in the middle but are also sloped on each side is because a butterfly roof style simply adjoins in the center and not the sides.
The sloped roof on this modern glass farmhouse mimics the look of half of the barn behind it.

The colour and material of the roof complement the structural integrity of a building.
While m shaped frames are slightly better with the wind factor the valley of the m is seen as a drawback.

Drainage does exist as seen in the picture but debris and snow can collect there without much trouble.
