Idk know what to call the original hexaroof, other than hexaroof. The hybrid has half gable roof and half hexaroof with an additional 4ft in height on that half. From my thoughts, there are 3 main types of roof formations, the hexaroof H12 with drainage to 6 sides, the gable roof H14, and a shed roof with drainage to one direction. there are quit a few combinations of these.
The H_## label could also be applied to other structure shapes as in square S_##, octagon O_##, etc.. The idea I've been playing with has either a shed, gable or hybrid of the two on a strong frame for a wall or walls of windows the face south to enable the sun to charge the earth's thermal mass like a battery for winter heating without other external fuel. Also, a convection ventilation system and shades for those south facing windows in warm weather periods. North facing windows and doors are good for temporary warm weather applications were appropriate. For me though, I'm have to go with something that's off-the-grid and comfortable year round. I like the idea of greenhouse covering or just recycled windows for the yurt. Going for a solid, cheap wall of windows here..
