You have to look close but the gables have two different exterior finishes: Red=diamond siding and Green = scalloped siding. Both of these patterns are in "Chief Patterns" as vector patterns, the textures were there also though the diamond pattern I reshaped using the "X-Y" inputs to reshape the texture. The scallop texture is a standard "Certainteed-Roofing-Scallops" with the "X-Y" adjusted to flatten the pattern out. The Diamond pattern is a diamond tile pattern that I edited (recolored) in Paint Shop Pro, These are then assigned to new wall types I created for this project. The dual-wall-pattern effect is done using gable pony walls resized in elevation cameras per gable.
I did the pergola roof by constructing one secton, a section at a time manually, until I had the roof sections stacked one on the other (each steeper than the one below in decending order). I believe I made that of four sections per side. I then copy-pasted the first one, 90d to the first and so on until I had four "sister" roof groupings to form the final product as shown. To finish up I used the "join roofs" tool to meld them all together after I got them as close as possible manually. I think I used a CAD box set to a locked layer as a guide.
