Lindy, Why dont you do a computer image of the outside of your home like you can do with digital decorator and play with some schemes. You would instantly know if you like it or not!! Otherwise as Luke suggested, you need to decide if you want to contrast or blend?? I would certainly start off with a blend, as changing it to a deeper colour later would be far easier than trying to go back to a lighter colour if you decide you don't like it. Deep Ocean can look stunning with Jarrah but now that you have Monument I think you really need to stick to Windspray if your window frames are that colour otherwise I feel you will be introducing too many colours and you will spoil the elegant look of the home. Cheers, Barbara

Lea, I got them from the Dulux website. I screenshot certain colours, then posted them to thread. Of course, it’s always best to get sample pots and try your selections where you will be using them...need to see them in all lighting and in combination with each other. You may want to speak with a colour consultant at a good paint shop; they are very knowledgeable and helpful. Also, lots of great articles on Houzz. You can can also post a Design Dilemna if you would like the wider community to mull over your colour palette and offer advice! Cheers.

The front of your home looks like homes in Las Vegas, Nevada. Are you more interested in a bathroom along these aesthetics? In Australia the bathroom you have shown would be a very common look. If you are staying in the home for a length of time, and your budget meets your wishes. Then change it to whatever you would feel more comfortable with.

Hi Marie Claire, it is always tempting to paint over varnished cabinet doors, but real timber is so rare in kitchens these days, that I think it would be nice to leave it be (and save all that time and repainting down the track!). Would you consider dark grey or black engineered stone benchtops? That would create a crisp tailored look and quiet down the timber. You could then add new black shiny cabinetry knobs. The contrast would like great with the tiled floor and still retain a country kitchen feel, just with a bit of pizazz ;)
