I prefer option 2.
But, I had a new Velux window fitted in my attic recently. It hinges in the middle and I really wanted one that hinges at the top, so that I could flip it fully open and get access to the roof. The middle hinge means that I can't get out and opening it fully just means that it hits me on the back of the head. :LOL:
 
I'd make sure the architect knew what he was doing structurally before sending me all those poncey graphics.

There is a lot going on with those roof junctions and the roof pitches could get a bit sticky if large (deep) beams are required above the large opening. This may affect whether the Velux windows will work (min pitch) etc.
