  Thanks all!
Bill, you are right about the angle of the shot.
This house sits on the low side of the road where the roof is easily visible ... well, I guess this roof would be easily visible from most any angle ;-)

  This is sooo cool! Very well photographed! I'm sitting here and wondering what the rest of the house looks like. I bet it's really contemporary! Don't you have a picture to show us? I actually LOVE it for a roof, no matter what the neighbors would think!!

  Thank you Donna, Diane, Marsha, Susana, Patty and Debby.
Actually, the house itself was very plain. Mostly block wall and not well kept.
My guess is this roof is more a product of low cost than an artistic statement.
