One of the definitions of BEAUTY, is every facet of the object is needed, none can be taken away…none are superfluous.

This is how a great house IS.  It is not a great front door, or interesting dark gutter lines, or the odd paint color on shutters…but the entire house is ONE yes….YES.

That IS magic…

so match your roof to siding

keep elements in scale, in harmony, in balance, symetrical
