I support Clerestory or Clestayurt. my thoughts were to use a "slash" or "split" to denote the double style in some way.
I am getting a bit unhappy with the H## convention, as I feel it is a unidimensional system for a multi-dimensional problem. ie, h15 could be a 3 edged roof with 4' walls or a conventional roof with 6' walls. I have seen people use it both ways and the cognitive dissonance is aggravating. I also feel a bit responsible in starting it with the h13. sorry. The H_## idea is interesting to me as well, as it does provide an additional dimension of information. my other idea was to enumerate the roof and walls separately- r6w6 would be a conventional 12piece 4' wall, r7w12 would be an 8' wall h13 roof. not sure how the clerestory would be able to fit into that. ..d On Tuesday, 5 August 2014 16:52:20 UTC-6, LucasG wrote: > > Also, AlexW, please, any preference about names? > > More details about this one possibility: > >clerestory yurt, clestayurt http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clerestory > >In architecture <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architecture>, *clerestory* > (/ <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English>ˈ > <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key>k > <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key>l > <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key>ɪər > <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key>s > <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key>t > <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key>ɔr > <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key>i > <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English#Key>/ > <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA_for_English>; lit. *clear storey*, > also *clearstory*, *clearstorey*, or *overstorey*) are any high windows > above eye level.
