Hip roof. A hip roof, hip-roof or hipped roof, is a type of roof where all sides slope downwards to the walls, usually with a fairly gentle slope. Thus it is a house with no gables or other vertical sides to the roof. A square hip roof is shaped like a pyramid.
Hipped Roof Variations. There are a few different style variations of hipped roofs. These styles include: Simple Hip - This is probably the most common style. There is a ridge over a portion of the roof, creating two triangle sides and two polygon sides. Pyramid Hip - Four sides shaped like triangles meet up at one single point at the top. Cross Hipped â This is kind of like putting two hipped roofs together. The point where the two sections meet up creates a seem. This seem is called a valley. Half Hipped â This is a standard style hipped roof that has two shortened sides to create eaves.
