First Timbrel/catalan Vaulted ceiling / roof.





After the success with Timbrel vaulted stairs I was itching for a roof.  We added a bath on the terrace and so roofed with .....
timbrel or cohesive tile, or catalan vaulted roof.

This is the bath on the terrace.

 We used hand made floor tiles for the first layer.  they are not so square and it would be better if they were longer than wide but they look great.












 Then another two layers of our rough "tiles" in cement.

amazing how much stronger it feels.

    Alternative building construction uses sustainable, energy-efficient materials like rammed earth, straw bale, and recycled steel. These eco-friendly methods enhance durability and reduce costs. For "Santa Monica roofing," green roofs and solar panels are top choices.

    Great read! I’ve been exploring roofing options for my outdoor space, and the idea of using a synthetic thatch roof really caught my attention. Synthetic Thatch Roof | Outdoor Umbrella | monsoon blinds | Synthetic Thatch Roof | pvc blinds | wooden venetian blinds | roller blinds for windows
