Mansard Roof

Thomas
A mansard roof resembles a gambrel roof. Its roof has two or three different roof pitches. The roof slopes in both the North-South and East-West directions, like a hipped roof, but it always has a shallow or flat portion higher up. Curved roof sections may be used in some mansard roofs, especially frequently on the lower portions. Thus, there is a significant increase in the useable volume under the roof. A mansard roof may cover a number of stories in very big houses.

Houses in Minecraft typically have an extensive parapet around them, so before mansard roofs start to seem acceptable, the house must be fairly enormous. As it has a bigger breadth and isn't as tall as other roofs, you can design your starter houses to make them look even more amazing!
