How To Build An ADVANCED ROOF In Minecraft!!! – The Ultimate Roof Guide

Making a good-looking roof in minecraft can be kind of difficult if you’re new to the game you’re probably building a lot of rooms like this no roof just a box maybe you’re a little better and you can build like a decent roof but it’s not crazy it’s just decent well today

I’m going to teach you how to build advanced roofs like these look at these gigantic or small roofs with tons of detail tons of color and so much texture okay the first important thing to note is the color of your roof should be different from the rest of your building

As we look around the roof is darker the roof is grayer you can see there’s a color change from the building to the roof even a tiny roof like this looks so much better when there is a drastic change in color it adds variety it adds

More detail so i recommend if your house is wood get a stone variant roof and vice versa if your house is stone get a wood variant roof next important step understand the bigger the house the better the roof looks for example look at these two roofs right here these are

Not very sophisticated roofs very simple but check it out this shorter house has a very similar roof but it looks so much worse why because the house isn’t very big if you understand these two principles about color and size you are good to begin building let’s get to work

Let’s begin by making a simple roof because if you don’t know how to make a simple roof this will be a very confusing video so let’s start small and get more advanced as we go on and here’s our house to work with a very simple but

Ugly square house as i said earlier take out a different kind of block in my case i’ll be using some cobblestone and you are going to go to the sides of your house and put down stairs all across that top block do this on both sides

Then on each side bring the stair out by one so it’s floating over the front and the back of the house just like this the reason we’re doing this is so we can put upside down stairs right in these blocks here so the roof has like a triangle

Shape so same thing on the back put upside down stairs on these off stairs and now very simply just make a staircase going up to the center and obviously as we keep going up keep doing more upside down stairs on the four blocks hanging off and after staircasing

A bit you’re gonna have a middle little groove here it could be one block could be two blocks but over here i like to just put down some solid blocks in the middle then on the furthest out block replace that with an upside down stair just for some extra texture but bada

Bing bada boom that’s a good roof for you and obviously you can fill in your walls a little bit higher to make this a little bit less hollow and boom a simple roof nothing flashy but it does the trick obviously it looks worse because the house itself is super ugly by the

Way if you want to fix how your house actually looks i have a separate video for that so go check that out link down below but now it’s time to get more advanced do you understand how to make a simple roof let’s step it up a notch and

Make our roof a lot better alright the first step for an advanced roof is to get a different kind of color a third color something a little bit different from the roof probably something that’s more towards the wall color in my case i’m gonna use spruce stairs because it’s

Darker than the wall but it still kind of looks like it now we’re getting a third block because we’re going to make the inner part of this roof different from the brim of the roof so for example if i break all these inner roof blocks and replace them with spruce stairs look

At this side of the roof look at how much more color and detail there is that is a big step towards making a better roof like compare the sides this ugly cobble mess or this beautiful exquisite roof i like the latter let’s do the ladder next up on your roof go to the

Middle groove again it could be one or two blocks wide but you’re gonna take out some slabs of your outer roof block in my case cobble so i’ll get some cobble slabs and i’m just gonna make this part here a half block taller using these slabs that way there’s a little

More texture a little bit more dimension to the roof you see how you can kind of see the cobble come across now from a distance that does a pretty good detail right there that grammar seemed incorrect but you know what i mean it looks a lot more detailed now now

Honestly this roof is solid but if you want something a little bit more unique and fancy keep watching let’s change the shape a little bit maybe you want a roof with four sides like look at this little building right here it’s tiny it’s cute but there’s four separate sides to our

Roof so here we are back at square one literally come on laugh that’s funny so for a four-sided roof think about on the front and back side of our first roof we made how it kind of had like this pyramid shape kind of thing like this shape you

Know what i mean so if you recall on our first house we went to the sides and we lined the top here with cobblestone stairs well don’t do that we are going to do the front method on all four sides meaning it’s like an upside down stair

Going into like a pyramid shape going up triangle shape you remember that so to do this go to each corner and place down a temporary block then put a stair facing the middle of that wall so they’re all gonna be facing towards the middle then break your temporary block

And boom we’re making the pyramid shape on all four sides this might be a little bit confusing but just try and listen up try and follow it because it looks really really good but now once all these corners are lined with your stairs do the same thing we did before upside

Down stair then normal stair making that triangle shape and same thing as before go up to the middle and meet at that centralized block also i should note you do want a square house for this so if you see in this case my house is like a

Rectangle shape and it’s not even these little triangles they’re not even so i really recommend you go make your house square shaped if you can’t this is fine you could make this work but it might be a little bit awkward but yeah for the sake of ease let’s make this house

Square now once all the triangles are done same thing as before upside down stair in the middle then we can take some more blocks for this roof block and just bring it across making ironically across now in these corner grooves here you are going to put in either more

Cobblestone or if you’re fancy your third kind of color in my case spruce and just wrap this around making like a weird cone shape kind of thing and when it’s all linked up together boom look at that and for the final step once again like we did before take some slabs on

Your roof and bring those across the top now i’m a big fan of this kind of roof but i can understand on really tall houses it can be a little bit awkward so if that’s the case you’re gonna want a taller roof as well time for roof number

Three now for our tall roof this is actually a very simple roof to do and it probably is my favorite out of all of them to be honest like i love the four-sided roof but this roof just looks that means good if you don’t know i hope

Now the start of this roof will be exactly the same as our first simple roof meaning the sides will be lined with stairs on the top block you’re gonna bring these stairs out by one and you’re gonna put down an upside down stair in front of the cobble stairs but

Here’s where it gets interesting we are not gonna make a normal kind of pyramid triangle shape we’re gonna put a solid block right on these upside down stairs this might be confusing right now but let me show you look at this blackstone building right here you can see that the

Roof is not some normal triangle shape it kind of goes triangle up triangle up it’s a weird shape but it looks good so on top of your solid blocks here you can either put down a normal stair or you can do another cobble block then do the

Stair above i’ll do the second one just so it’s a little bit taller but basically now we’re gonna do an upside down stair again and then we can just kind of move on from here and we can either go normal roof from here or we

Can go even taller and do the same thing again again it’s very customizable it’s very like you have to feel it out and see how it looks maybe tear it down and do it a few times but by the end of it it might look really cool and here’s my

Roof shape look at this it’s like a very wide kind of bottle shape but it is very unique now as we did learn on the previous two roofs you might want to have the middle of your roof be a different kind of block so i’m gonna

Take out some spruce blocks as well and we’re gonna make the interior you know the rest we’re gonna give it this third color i hope this video has not been confusing for you because i can understand how there could be some confusion but guys just try and take this step by

Step and really try and practice building these kind of roofs because all three of the rooms i’ve showed you today all three of them they really can have a profound effect on even the most disgusting looking building a building is only as good as its roof so if your

Roof is terrible well it’s going to be a terrible building and once again as you know on the top put down some more slabs of your rim and look at that beautiful roof wait gotta fill in the wall now you definitely see why this roof is better

On a tall building because it’s a really tall roof on a short building it would look extremely weird sorry for the double plug but guys this house does look awful so if you want to make your house look better i have a tutorial on how to improve the outside of your house

Link is down below for my own sanity i’m just going to do some of those little details right now just because it’s really bugging me there we go that’s a lot better now here’s the final roof i want to show you today which is the l-shaped roof this

Kind of roof is great for separating a long building and it works great with our tall roof so as i just mentioned you’re gonna want to make this roof with preferably our tall roof so go ahead and make that on a longer building you don’t

Need to have this kind of roof but it looks a lot better so do what you want so go to either of the sides of this building and on one side you are going to expand out this wall by like a few blocks something like this loop it back

In and make like a little bit of a square here and what we’re going to do is basically make this an extension of the house so bring this around do your same design or whatever you want to do to the house but just make the wall the

Same height so here’s my little extra square here off the house it’s very simple very ugly but here comes the l-shaped roof park if you look in the sky it kind of looks like an l right now but there’s no roof on this little block here so obviously we’re gonna take our

Roof and we are going to continue the roof pattern going around the little block here so you see here we wrapped around our normal stairs now we’re going to try and change the connection of these stairs so it all looks a little bit more even if that makes sense then

You’re gonna see here on the main roof we did two blocks then a stair so same thing here go two blocks and then wrap your stairs around and just like down here on the cobblestone make sure all your connections look natural so do this on both sides now you kind of get the

Picture we’re mimicking this exact pattern in this block so now we’re going to go up by one block then up by two stairs so we’re going to go up by one block then up by two stairs now in my case here i can’t fit two stairs i’m

Just gonna take my cobblestone here and just kind of like bring this down like this just to make it a little bit more even now after doing all this i did realize this looks really bad down here so maybe on this far side we’re gonna make the normal kind of like front shape

Like this yeah that’s already looking so much better doing it this way then connect our slabs to the top and now just fill in the rest of the stairs like so i do realize i kind of messed up explaining this one i kind of did this wrong myself so i apologize if this

Caused you some stress but this is a complicated roof so there’s a disclaimer if that makes you feel better but uh there we go after all that trouble wait wait wait and boom there we go that looks a lot better there’s our l-shaped house now for one final recommendation i

Think the door should go on this little skinny block you made or it could go like in this corner here but don’t put it on the long side because that it just looks weirdly out of place this is like the back of the house here so don’t put

The door there but yeah guys that is how you make a bunch of advanced roofs in minecraft if you want to see more roofs let me know i can make a second video on this there’s many more rooms i can build but this is like the start of advanced

Roofing so hopefully you enjoyed and i hope you have a cool roof now once again so sorry for that last roof i know that was a mess to make i feel kind of guilty that i just made you guys go through that whole thing but uh forgive me but

Yeah guys on that note if you want to see more minecraft tutorials like this one make sure to like subscribe do all the good stuff and i’ll talk to you guys next time so until then goodbye You
