An A-frame roof has a steeply-angled (roofline) that typically functions as both the roof and two of the four exterior walls. The roof will usually begin at or near the foundation and join together at the top in a way that resembles the letter “A.” An A-frame ceiling can be open to the top rafters. The A-frame roof is a simple and less expensive roof design because the roof serves as both roof and walls. A-frame roofs can be found around the world, most notably in Europe, North America, China, and the South Pacific islands, such as the Maori community meeting house called marae. A-frame homes have been around for centuries, but they experienced a surge in popularity in the 1950s. As the design gained popularity, Macy's department stores started to sell it as part of their Leisurama homes, further reducing the cost.
