Roof Work Progressing

I purchased and live in something called a Kádár Cube , the most prevelant type of house in Hungary, particularly in the countryside. My feelings about this communist architectural form are mixed. On the one hand, I find it garishingly simplistic, dare I say, almost brutalist in nature. On the other hand, the basic design does convey a certain charm. Kádár Cubes bear a striking resemblance to children's drawings of houses. 

Anyway, I decided to get the roof redone this year. The old roof was still functional, but it was inching ever closer to its expiration date, and I thought it prudent to have it replaced before the inevitable leaks appeared in a few years' time. Here's what the house looked like with the old roof.  Street view. The old roof tiles are terracotta. The new ones will be the same but different in color. View from the side of the yard. The photo doesn't do justice to just how "beat up" the old tiles are. And here's the progress we have made thus far. If all goes well, the new terracotta tiles should be up next week.  Street view. The old tiles removed. New framing on the roof. View from the back. Note the condition of the old beams. After the roof is done, I will focus on the walls that have yet to be polished up.
