I ought to note, my 1870’s barn has red shingles on one side, and the standard metal on the part we just redid. Here is a picture of it as we were finishing the rebuild. Green with aluminum. I’d prefer the red shingles or the cedar brown, but it is functional, it is in budget, and it does work. (the funny spots are ice breakers, they keep the snow from sliding off all at once)
