Copper Front Porch Overhang

Champaign, IL

Sometimes, a small architectural feature can have a large impact on defining the look of a façade. When the new homeowners of this Champaign home inherited such a feature, restoring the original arched, Craftsman-style overhang was the only option on the table. The soldered copper roof will patina from its current color to deep, dark browns, blues and finally, after a decade or two, to a rich green.
