There are plenty of different architectural roof designs but one contemporary style that you’ll regularly see on stylish apartments and contemporary getaway homes is the butterfly style.

This type of roof can work beautifully with large skylights on both of the ‘wings’, and you’ll get a substantial amount of desirable sunlight to brighten up the home. Light will really penetrate into the living spaces with a butterfly roof, and it’s certainly a unique style.

Different materials can be used to form this kind of roof, depending on the pitch, but a continuous membrane is the best option in most cases, for example; fibreglass. If you’re looking to make your residence a little bit different, a butterfly roof could be the best contemporary, eye-catching solution.
