Use for small structures built on the ridges of roofs, particularly common in American architecture; when these structures are intended to be used as lookouts, prefer "belvederes"; for windowed superstructures on roofs or domes used to admit light or air to the space below, use "lanterns (roof appendages)"; for hemispherical roofs, use "domes."
