Oh Yes.. The Cupola!



We finished installing the Cupola a few days ago. The project turned out awesome. I got to give it to the guy's. I was a little curious how we where going to pull this one off, on time and on budget. yeah I'm the numbers guy, it keeps the lights on. Here are a few pictures of the Cupola. Also the definition of what a Cupola is and where you can pick one up yourself.



Definition of a Cupola:

It's a Latin word meaning, little dome. A Cupola is usually a four sided light structure mounted on a roof. A Cupola is for ornamental purposes, but can enclose a light or hide a roof vent. Now a day's Cupola are mainly used for cosmetic purposes. They are made out of wood, metal, copper, shingles, with a weather vain to finish them off.


You can pick one up on the Internet at a dozen different sites, but here are two of them that I found.
