Dormer

Dormer
There might be a more apt name for this corner dormer.

I agree for strictly speaking a dormer protrudes so has its own roof.

But what the correct term for the above eludes me, sorry.

I couldn't find a Dutch name either, perhaps corner gable?

I like the dissymmetry.

I think corner gable is spot on, and I too like the 'untidy' look, but then you have seen the way I dress so...

Corner chapel? Is that the correct interpretation?

A dormer is called a dakkapel in Dutch, directly translated "roof chapel". So this can be a hoekkapel, or indeed "corner chapel", but I don't think chapel is used in English for a dormer.

No it isn't, so in English I think perhaps corner gable window just about covers it,
