Step 1 - Creating New Document.

Create a new document (Cmd/Ctrl +N) with these setting:.
Step-1

Step 2 - Creating Shape For Roof.

Activate rounded rectangle tool . On the option bar, set to shape layer, with 20 px radius, set color to #a2a2a2. Create a shape.
Step-2

Step 3 - Modifying Path.

Activate Convert Point Tool. And click on these points shown below to convert them into angles.
Step-3

Step 4 - Modifying Path Again.

With pen tool and its "Auto Add/Delete", delete the anchor points below.
Step-4a
Look at this. There are two points we have to delete.
Step-4b
And our image should like this.
Step-4c

Step 5 - Duplicating Path.

Use "Ctrl/Cmd + C" to copy path, then paste path "Ctrl/Cmd + V".
Now we have two path in one layer. And then we'll make them into a 90 degree angle. Use "Ctrl/Cmd + T", and move the center of transform control to top right corner.
Step-5a
Rotate it 90º CCW, press enter to apply. Activate Path Selection Tool (A), nudge the path to left like this.
Step-5b

Step 6 - Preparing for Highlight (Duplicating Path and Scaling Down).

Now, we need to duplicate the layer with "Cmd/Ctrl + J". And name it "highlight". Then transform the paths on this new layer. Hit "Cmd/Ctrl + T" to show transform control. To get easier transforming, we can use Alt and Shift key. Scale down horizontally first, an then scale down vertically. Just like this.
Step-6a
Repeat the transforming onto another subpath.
Step-6b

Step 7 - Rasterizing.

On the layer pallette, right click on "highlight" and select "Rasterize Layer". Or we can access it on Menu Layer > Rasterize > Shape.
Step-7

Step 8 - Selection

On layer palette, Ctrl + Click on "highlight" layer thumbnail to load selection. Then click menu Select > Modify > Feather or use "Shift + F6". Give 10 pixels radius.
Step-8
 
 

Step 9 - Filling with White.

Hit "D" on keyboard to set default color. "Cmd/Ctrl + Delete" to fill the selection with background color (white).
Step-9

Step 10 - Make it Smoother.

Hit "Cmd/Ctrl + D" to deselect. Then add "Gaussian Blur" onto this highlight. Click Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur and give 5 pixels. Then reduce the opacity layer to 50%. So it become smoother. But, the Gaussian Blur may increase its size. So make it into clipping mask to the lower layer. Just hit "Cmd + Opt + G" / "Ctrl + Alt + G". The highlight will be inside the shape of roof.
Step-10

Step 11 - Rotating -45º

Select both layers at once ("highlight" and "shape 1"). Press "Cmd/Ctrl + T" and rotate -45º. Use "Shift" for easier rotating.
Step-11

Step 12 - Adding Layer Style.

Add layer style onto shape layer.
Inner Shadow
  • Blend Mode : Multiply
  • Set the shadow color to #515252
  • Opacity : 100%
  • Angle : 90º
  • Distance : 5 px
  • Choke : 0%
  • Size : 10 px
Bevel An Emboss
  • Style : Inner Bevel

  • Shadow opacity : 100%
Step-12

Step 13 - Creating Shape Again.

With Rectangle Tool, create shape above background. And the color setting is #677479. And don't forget to use "Shift" to make a square rectangle.
Step-13

Step 14 - Rotating, Scaling and Placing.

Rotate the new shape, scale and place it proportionally.
Step-14a
Step-14b
We're going to edit this new shape for completing "roof", but it's better to create front side first in order to get pola for editing.

Step 15 - Grouping.

Group these layers by select them and press "Cmd/Ctrl + G". Give name "roof" to this group.
Step-15

Step 16 - Drawing Path For Front Side.

Hide the "shape 2" layer by clicking eye icon. Then using rectangle tool, draw a rectangle outside the group, above the "Background" layer. Shown below.
Step-16
 
 
Note : while drawing, hold the spacebar key in order to be able to place path in center by dragging mouse.

Step 17 - Modifying Path - Add Anchor Points.

Using Pen Tool with "Auto Add/Delete, add anchor points on three places below. The pointer will automatic changed to Add Anchor Point Tool when brought nearer to path.
Step-17

Step 18 - Modifying Path - Converting Points.

While Pen Tool still active, hold down the "Alt" key, pointer will be changed to Convert Point Tool. Click the anchor points we've just already created.
Step-18

Step 19 - Modifying Path - Deleting Unnecessary Points.

There are two unnecessary points wich must be deleted. Use Pen Tool with "Auto Add/Delete". The pointer will automatic changed to Delete Anchor Point Tool when brought nearer to anchor point.
Step-19

After layer style added, our image should look like this:
Step-20b

Step 21 - Back to Roof - Duplicating Path.

Activate shape 2. We will edit it.
Step-21a
To duplicate the path, use Path Selection Tool. Select Path. Copy the path with "Cmd / Ctrl + C" and paste the path with "Cmd / Ctrl + V". And then resize the path, "Cmd / Ctrl + T", make the path copy bigger than original path. After that, on the option bar, select "subtract from shape area".
