White equates to death in Chinese culture, but also to the Westerly direction which is also benefited by metals and pale greys. For a south east door as you have, stick to the colours you have suggested: green, light blue and turquoise are perfect. Perhaps you could do the same colour for both doors or a paler shade of the same colour for the back door. Definitely not white though! Also wood elements to include other than colour are tall rectangular like shapes in these areas. But generally lots of plants, flowers and wooden furniture will improve everything in this zone. Especially darker wood tones. Maybe pencil pines would be especially nice if you like them. Wooden wind chimes might be auspicious. Good luck, I think it looks really pretty!

I say go for it as your door is the window to your home. My advice would be to consider the colour of the flecks in your brick to make sure your chosen colour works with it and not to forget about the colour of your roof and window frames. For example I would have loved a red door but it would have looked ghastly with the green roof on my 25 year-old house. Instead I did black with dark grey window frames (which truly just look black) which works to pick up the black in the brick. I added my big pot plants with green foliage and still got a touch of red in the form of an old chair I picked up from an op shop years ago. The entrance is welcoming, attractive and reflects what is waiting inside. Have fun and if your chosen colour isn't quite right do what I did and find a way of incorporating it into the scheme somehow.

:o) and that looks beautiful too. I love the combo of your tiles, the charcoal and red. It makes me smile that we all take an interest in each others projects. I wonder if it is a combo between wanting to help each other because we know how stressful renos can be, plus loving beautiful design, plus the "dream" factor...in that we think about what we would do in a similar situation.....Seeing the whole look now.....the colour I suggested wouldn't have worked anywhere near as well as what you decided on....Hehehe.

Porters yacht race..... not yachet, is a good quality paint. If this is going on your front door, you have to be aware of any fading that may occur because it is a darker colour. Choose the best quality paint for a front door.
