AppleDown Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Hello everyone. I'm currently looking at what options we have when it comes to cladding our 'modern' dormer. I initially had ideas of steel or similar cladding sheets, but I'm open to other options. Attached is the DAS interpretation from our architect. It's in a conservation area, so can't be too 'out there' - but they didn't have any issues on design at all while going through planning. All thoughts and ideas welcome.

Thanks for the idea - but we're very anti-brick. We did look initially, but not fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adsibob Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Wood planks or clay tiles. Or copper sheeting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ETC Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Sorry - no. A bit too big for my taste. Perhaps it’s the different types of roof that are putting me off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough - always appreciated your thoughts. We ummed and ahhd over a few options, but wanted to reference the existing building on site somewhere (the monopitch) and incorporate the modern dormer too. I think it’ll come together (hopefully!)
