Kevin and Dianna Roberts House Construction

As of August 6, 2001

One month has now passed, and there has been much progress. Currently work is underway to put torch-on roofing material on the plywood roofing to make it waterproof, before the roofing shingles are added. The roofing is very complicated with a partial cylindrical form at the roof peak. The peak forms the one upstairs room of the house. This page attempts to show more detail about the shape of the house, although this is difficult to do. The house is built on the peak of a 90 foot (27 m) rock, making it impossible to photograph all the walls of the house from the outside.


Viewed from a neighbouring lot. It shows the partial cylindrical roof.

With the current house rotation, this looks south.


To the left, looking north from inside the house. Straight from the picture, looking west.

These photos show three of the four sides of the house. 
The photo on the left shows the sloping roof, and the one on the right shows a small part of the
curved second floor roof.

The two photos below show the second floor from the inside. The centre portion of the roof over this section is cylindrical.


Floor 2 - Master Bedroom. Currently this is looking east. Note the deck and curved balcony rail.

The next group of photos shows the first floor from the inside. Consider that you are standing in the centre of this square. As you rotate clockwise this is what you will see. Of course, as the whole house rotates, the actual view from any particular window may be different.
