Black window frames with what colour roof & facade?
9 years ago
Wondering what colour steel roof and facade trim etc to choose with black window frames if I am going Industrial style?
I'm thinking Monument...
Our shed 2 aces away is woodland grey which our house was meant to be the same but going for more of the grey tones and the woodland grey is quite green.
The attached photo is what I am going for.
Thank you

What color window frames for our contemporary country home?
Comments (11)@Rachael It's a dilemma, isn't it?! Our house in the bush has ended up with anodised window frames and galvanised iron cladding (i.e. silver that will dull to grey) with a Monument roof. The view is huge and I think the black window frames - while I love them would have looked too urban and have framed the view too much, if that's possible. The view is so big we wanted to look 'through' the windows and their frames. Also, as I said above, dusty exterior window ledges would have driven us nuts. However, if I were in an urban setting, I would have gone for black windows and the dark roof if my views were more intimate. Good luck with the decision making ......See MoreColours to paint roof, gutters and window frames to match bricks?
Comments (4)I would be looking to counterbalance the intensity of the orange brick by introducing some olive greens into the trim and gutters. I don't know if your budget would extend to refinishing the roof tiles in a similar green. Get samples of Colorbond Pale Eucalyptus and Wilderness to see how they look against the brick. If neither work then consider Colorbond Woodland Grey. Of course some decent landscaping will help break up the mass of orange and soften the look.

Comments (5)What are the houses (street / neighborhood) around you like? Many houses being renovated and moving away for the original designs? Or, more minimal cosmetic facelifts? With your spotted gum decking, you'll have a timber clash with the front door. Might need to work around that as well as maintaining connection to the street / area. Kate is on the money ... put the new deck in and upload a picture then. Too many variables with how the deck will look when finished vs the front door and style of the home etc....See MoreIdeas to change facade colours; gutters, windows, render and door
Comments (11)The current tender works with the bricks on unrendered part of the house. Are you planning on rendering all round? If not, I’d stay with a similar colour to what you have currently or leave as is. The windows look fairly new and whilst you can paint them I’d seriously consider the need to. The verandah and lack of landscaping are the two main things that let the house down and this is where I’d spend money first....See More
9 years agoHi Selina, the only photos I have are on mu Camera and it is very unclear and throws pink, very annoying. The house used to be and L shaped red brick and is really lovely now, colour is much softer paler than photos I will try to borrow a better camera this week. the Double garage was added to the front and joins back to the house on the right hand side cheers.
