This may diverge from the intended point of this thread, but just for kicks, here's a traditional Japanese gassho zukuri thatched-roof a-frame.

These are mostly in the Gero prefecture, and I visited some, almost 10 years ago. But this pic is better than any that I took, and borrowed from the web (with apologies to the owner). Lots more pics of these kinds of structures if you try "gassho zukuri" on google images, probably including this photo above.
