Roof Generator for Blender

Roof Generator builds real roofs in Blender with every tile, slate and thatch bundle modelled, from an English thatched cottage or a Parisian mansard to a Japanese temple, a Thai temple with chofa horns, a Russian onion dome or a sawtooth factory. Pick one of 46 culture presets, or choose a roof type and a plan, and change anything: the roof rebuilds live as you drag a slider.

23 roof types cover the world of architecture: gable, hip, half-hip, Dutch gable, mansard, gambrel, saltbox, shed, flat, butterfly, M-shaped, sawtooth, monitor, pagoda, Thai tiered, saddle, spire, barrel, dome, onion, cone, bell and yurt. They sit on rectangle, L, T, U, H, cross, courtyard, polygon and round plans, or on the outline of your own building with Roof from Selection.

Every covering is PBR and works in game engines: clay, Spanish, Roman and Japanese kawara tiles, Chinese tube tiles, pantiles, natural and stone slate, wood shingles and shakes, asphalt, fish-scale, standing seam, corrugated and box profile metal, bamboo, straw, reed and palm thatch, turf, sedum, gravel and membrane, with photo textures from Poly Haven.
