I don't know what these architects are thinking anymore. The rest of the house looks like a shoebox with a shed roof on top. Butt ugly.

I have a set of drawings by someone. Apparently he's so ashamed that he didn't put his name on the title block.

This one is in a 140 mile wind zone, exposure C, on a ridge so some pretty big uplift forces.

I tell these contractors all the time, when you build an open roof, you've built a wing. A deck is similar. In this case, he has five wings.

This has got to be a VRBO, or something. Those better be more than No2 Treated southern pine.

I mean, if built safely, I'd consider taking a two day piss off that 4 story deck.

I agree.
We were in the Smokies and I laughed out loud at many of those idiot houses built on the side of a hill. All in an effort to catch a little bit of a view.
I would not have it. Not even as a second home.
