Traditionally,
Australian homes were built with corrugated roofing, but during the
70's a shift to terracotta and concrete tiles became commonplace.
Nowadays, roofing designs include material such as steel and other
modern materials. Even though we are familiar with the role of the
roof, keeping us safe and dry, roof designs do not have to be boring.
Architects and designers are leading the charge with modern roofing
designs using corrugated, steel and metal roofing materials. And it
is not just country residents opting for home designs incorporating
new roofing materials, city folk are embracing the design shift as
well.
In
the last ten years building design on the Gold Coast have come a long
way. Today, it's not unusual to see a new home designed with a modern
roof incorporating curved or flat metal design. Another popular
roofing product is steel roofing materials, which have become popular
on the Gold Coast.
Choosing
to build with corrugated or steel roofing not only adds value to your
property, but also improves the aesthetics of your home. The ability
to bend, twist and curve steel roofing adds to the overall impression
of the roof. Terracotta roofing does not give you the same
flexibility as modern roofing materials.
When
selecting a roof design, it's a good idea to drive around your local
area and check out examples of roofs. This will help you to envisage
how it would look on your home. Sometimes it's hard to picture what
it would look like when designed on a computer. Selecting a building
roofing design using metal will create a statement and add character
to your home. In a street full of cement and terracotta roofing
tiles, you'll be amazed at how much a steel roof will stand out,
adding to the value of your property.
If
you are living in Australia and are attracted to modern roofing
