Origin:
The term "roofline" emerged in the 16th century to describe the distinct line created by the meeting point of the roof and the wall. It became widely used in architecture and engineering to refer to the shape and appearance of a building's roofline, which often reflects the architectural style and regional influences.
In addition to its literal meaning, the roofline has also taken on a figurative meaning in architecture, denoting the overall silhouette and character of a building. It can convey a sense of balance, proportion, and aesthetic appeal, contributing to the visual impact of structures.
