It's a good-looking design and very modern. You have included handy features which I normally forget about in my own designs. Have you designed the interior?
I would always choose a slanted roof over a flat one. Flat roofs are more likely to leak and the last thing you want is water running down the walls and everything - not good for the building.

my vote is for the flat roof. the project is a series of cubes. the slope roof truncates the top portion and forces eye movement vertically. the flat roof extends the horizontal plane to infinity giving the impression of a larger living space. i would also consider the proportions a little bit to emphasize this horizontality, maybe the ceilings should be a bit lower and the glazing divisions longer along the x axis.

Depends on the climate. In Nigeria where there is a lot of rain, the one sided roof as long as it has a slope to drain of water. In temperate regions the flat roof is ok.

I think they both have their charm. This one, at least in terms of the roof, looks more realistic since it seems to have some significant thickness/beef to it. I prefer this one because it feels more dynamic. But I think it also depends on the location - if its a snowy area this seems more appropriate versus the flat. However, if snow is the case... I'd probably make sure the roof overhangs don't dump/drain directly on top of the car port. Nice work.
