Design notes
What this design explores
This front view emphasises the narrow proportions of a house with a planted roof edge. The pergola uprights are visible above the front planter, while tall window bays and pale columns repeat below. The covered ground-floor arrival and outdoor rooms are stacked on a small-looking frontage.
Consider where the stair reaches the roof and whether someone can maintain the planting without crossing the seating area. The front view is particularly useful for testing the alignment of the bays and how much height the pergola adds to the street elevation. Actual dimensions depend on the site survey.
