I like the 'separate box' idea - we in Britain will also have problems with using approved windows when we have to pass our own test.

That's a cool design you're working on. I look forward to watching your progress.
I also build trailers using metal for the cabin structure. Here is a link to an all aluminum cabin that may give you some ideas for your build: viewtopic.php?f=27&t=51991

The radius of the corners is 300 mm. So the outer length of one roof segment is 471 mm.
The square angle will be on top of the roof.
If I cut a sheet of 471 x 471 mm in this way it could lay one segment over the other like they did it at the front shell of vintage airstreams.
Then rivets and sealing with liquid from inside.
I will test it with cardboard and if that works with a sheet of aluminum.
Or better draw the lines on one eighth of a 60 cm diameter plastic ball and cut it !

I don't know if SS would allow you to do that reasonably easily or not,
