If you seek a modern look for your house, then I can recommend our Ebony range. These bricks are very smooth and have unique dimensions. Alternatively, if you want to mix things up and put some really stone like looking bricks in as features, then our Tierra range will work for you - thinking the Toledo or the Bilbao. They will be the colours that suit. These bricks are really unique. Handmade, incredibly textured and varied. Have a look at these options and see if it helps.

Your colours will look quite good. Don't forget landscaping will make a massive difference so have a look at that as well.

How about a more contemporary wire rail system as shown below. Also a lovely green grey upstairs may work. The one below is Taubman's battle green full strength - computer colour of it is not accurate.

You are asking Houzzers to do too much research. Post images of the colours and bricks etc and you are sure to get comments.
